“Del Ray was the first community that really embraced us. It really feels like we’re home here,” said Pawfectly Delicious Dog Treats Executive Director Anne Tuccillo. “This money will be used to help further strengthen our operational infrastructure and help provide opportunities for additional disabled adults.”

The event, led by Passionately Pets’ Jenna Gotch, featured a luring course, a distracted dog race, a dog fashion show, obstacle courses, and other fun activities for the dogs of Del Ray (and beyond) and their humans.
