[nagdu] National Convention--my opinion

[Danielle Antoine]

Melissa,

I agree. that half-day was really good and made quite a difference.
Mike, thanks for clarifying about the funding options for the relief

may have been inspired by a team and may decide to help out. You never
know! And I think since dogs need it, there owners should fund it as
much as possible.
