Almost two years ago, our Labs - 9 puppies - were left in a box at the Humane Society of Greater Kansas City's (HSGKC's) booth at the Plaza Art Fair in Kansas City. HSGKC helped find all of the adopting "parents." We created a group called the "Fab Labs," and we have kept in touch and celebrated their milestones. Last year, you might have seen many of our unruly puppies on Gary Lezak's Pet Telethon in Kansas City. This year, in addition to showing up with our (better behaved) pups, we presented Gary and HSGKC with a $1,200 check that will help the Humane Society continue their wonderful work. We knew that it was especially important this year because hard economic times mean that more pets are left at the Society's door (and other places).
