Amanda and I can't express how fortunate we were to have so many local businesses support us for our fundraiser for Cable, the future service dog, last night: $,1920 raised! Thank you!!

It is amazing how generous our small businesses are, especially during the pandemic. It's times like these that we see how important community is. Thanks to everyone who helped us with Cable's journey.

Let's pull together and show our small businesses how important they are to us. Shop local when you can!
