Hi Roy,

I don't even live around your area. But I really like the title of your post.

Here is a look at the pooches a friend has.

My dogs at the river.

 

They do love the water.

Best, Clint McKie

Good Sunday morning to all.  I hope Mother's Day is a very special day for your family.

If you do not have a Citizen Canine photo contest in your community, you may wish to become the sponsor.

Roy,

It seems that Gaitherburg has numerous events to promote citizens to follow the laws and rules. I like the photo contest and it should drive more folks to obtain the appropriate dog license.

Thanks so much for your comments.  I bet that your city is not sponsoring a contest like this.  If not, sponsor it yourself to build your contact list.

Those of us that are fortunate to live in Gaithersburg, a debt free city, enjoy the events that add to the quality of life for the residents.
