Member Kylene Halliday and her service dog Faro will be talking about service dogs and how they differ from therapy dogs.  This is always a good topic, as there are many misconceptions about both service dogs and therapy dogs among the public.  As Furry Friends members, the more we know, the more we can spread the word.

Members of the public are always welcome, but no dogs please.
