Subject: Nov '02 Baltimore/DC/Annapolis Area Dog Events

It's getting cold, and dark early, making it more difficult to get out and do fun things with your dog, but there's still some opportunities out there. Besides, the dog doesn't mind the cold and you can always buy a warmer coat. And hat. And gloves.

If you happen to stumble on this and would like to receive it via email, let me know at gomezthenewf at hotmail dot com.


As usual, if you hear of anything I missed, please let me know.
