Mutt-i-grees rescue dog fair (1)

We stopped at an upscale shopping area in Virginia over the weekend which had been transformed into a rescue dog fair put on by a group out of New York called the Mutt-i-grees Movement http://www.animalleague.org/muttigrees-movement/ . I was impressed that they had driven all that distance to find forever homes for a number of dogs and only wish we could have taken one home with us, but our house is too small for another dog, and Sahraa would never stand for it, unfortunately. I do hope some of the dogs, who were just delightful, were adopted. This one reminded me of Sahraa.

I echo Lynn's comment...and also Jim's... what a wonderful and heart-warming, hopeful event. I so very much hope that the dogs were adopted. I would have to be dragged away or I'd quickly take them all. V

I am in Jim Coffman's boat. We used to have cats and dogs around our house. Now we are limited to the birds. Sigh!
