Colorado Kennel Club Honored YAPS
At their February Dog Show, Colorado Kennel Club honored YAPS—Youth And Pet Survivors—a pen-pal program that pairs children who have cancer with dogs (and in one case, a cat) also suffering from the disease. The participating child-dog pairs write each other encouraging the children at Denver's Children's Hospital. Colorado Kennel Club President Louise Leone presented a monitary contribution to YAPS in the Center Ring before Best in Show.
