Weekend Agenda: Pup Adoption Event; Drumming Circle
Even if you aren't ready to adopt, come and support this fundraiser for needy pets.

Peanut, a special needs pup, is among the many adoptable pets who will be available to meet at the New England All Breed Rescue Adoption and Furry Fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 14, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Tony's Pet Oasis, 7 Williams Road, North Grafton (Shopping Center off Route 122).
"If you're interested in adopting a new family member or in supporting this wonderful organization," said organizers, "then come on down to Tony's to meet all of these wonderful dogs and puppies that are looking for their forever homes!"
Dr. Campbell of Riverlin Animal Hospital passes out free first vet visit certificates and frisbees for the dogs. Also, Amy Tozeski of Amy's In Home Boarding & Daycare explains her services and offer coupons.
You can pick up literature and information from Pack of Paws/Doggone U Dog Training in Southbridge & Worcester. And, receive an exclusive discount from Tony's Pet Oasis to purchase any of your new dog/puppy's needs or donate items to the rescue on the spot.
