Rita participated in the “Day of the Dog” 5k race through Virtual Run Events!

Our time was 33:01 – we managed to shave off 56 seconds from our last race!

This was a great run, as the fall colors were absolutely amazing!

20% of our registration fee was donated to Freedom Service Dogs. Freedom Service Dogs is a nonprofit organization that enhances the lives of people with disabilities by rescuing dogs, and custom training them for individual client needs. Clients include children, veterans, active duty military, and other adults. Their disabilities include autism, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Rita added another medal to her spot on our “Wall of Fame!”

Rita’s total race miles: 9.35 miles

Remember “Bella,” the adorable 16 week old GSP puppy we fostered?

Well, Pepper (Bella’s new name) is doing GREAT and is as happy as can be in her new home with her 4-legged sister, Mocha, a Vizsla/Weimaraner mix, and her two human sisters who give her lots of exercise!

We were lucky enough to get invited over for a play date, and boy, did we have a BLAST!!
