Stamford Museum & Nature Center Goes to the Dogs Sunday, September 21, 2008, 11am-3pm
On Sept. 21, the museum will present SM&NC Goes to the Dogs, a day-long festival celebrating dogs and the people and organizations that rescue them and train them for service. The event's main feature will be dog agility demonstrations led by Mary-Elizabeth Simpson. Ms. Simpson is a dog trainer whose athletic and well-behaved canine crew consists mostly of Pembroke Welsh Corgis, Australian Shepherds, and Border Collies. The Yankee Flyers canine Frisbee team will also perform. Dog service groups, such as FIDELCO, Guiding Eyes for the Blind, Puppies Behind Bars, Stamford Animal Care and Control, and Greyhound Rescue will share their goals and trained dogs with visitors. SM&NC Goes to the Dogs will be held from 11 am to 3 pm, and is free with regular gate admission.
Please note that visitors may not bring their pet dogs. The only dogs allowed on the SM&NC property are those participating in the demonstrations.
