CHOCOLATE and Wine!! Plus some great dogs in Alpharetta

What more do I need to add to a headline? At this Saturday's (2.11) wine tasting at VINO 100 in Alpharetta, Dove Chocolate will be making a special presentation. 4:30-6:30 131 S. Main St. Only $10 to sample the wine selections ($5 of which goes to support CA). And you get to pet the dogs.
The details.

    Thank you Kevin. I would love to visit but I can't do it now. Do you really train canine assistants?
  • Sherrie, I am a certified dog handler (volunteer) for Canine Assistants in Milton, GA. I take service dogs in training with me and help them socialize in the world before they graduate. I don't do the training but I reinforce it and apply it in situations not on the farm. www.canineassistants.org and also there is a PBS television show: http://www.pbs.org/dogs-eyes I love doing it. It brings smiles to people every day when a dog enters the room and more importantly, these dogs bring such joy and help to the recipients and their families.

    Kevin, that is wonderful and very kind of you. I donate to National Education for Assistance Dog Services. I try to be careful when I pick my charities and look to charitynavigator.org to make sure the charity is providing the income to the program, not the CEO. Canine Assistants should sign up with them.
  • Sherrie, great that you do verify charities! Charity Navigator has rated Canine Assistants 3 or 4 overall and financial stars (out of 4). CA is also part of the Animal Charities of America and Part of the Combined Federal Campaign for federal employees.
  • Sorry we missed it....had to juggle one child playing in two different basketball playoff games and a North Point retreat....hope it went well!
