Centered around the college's Field House and Athletic Field, the American Kennel Club-approved show attracted two- and four-legged visitors from a wide geographic area - and rave reviews for the venue from handlers, vendors and spectators. The event also provided the opportunity for some kid/canine chemistry during a drop-in by youngsters and staff from the Dunham Children's Learning Center.
