Tallahassee's Top Dog 2011

[Marnie, Stanlee's Mom]

I was running errands this past weekend and walking through the Renaissance Center in downtown Tallahassee, passed by a wall hanging I had never noticed before.  Looking up I stopped dead in my tracks because on the wall hung a collage of photos depicting Tallahassee's Top Dog for the year 2011 - a labradoodle named Ari.  As a doodle owner and lover, it thrills me to see other doodles celebrated almost as much as mine is (in my warped and often over-exaggerated mind.)

The Top Dog contest is sponsored every year in Tallahassee by a non-profit organization called Be The Solution.  It is an event that raises money to provide financial assistance to those that can’t afford the cost of a spay or neuter.  I accessed the website to see the contestants for this year’s contest (that ended April 1^st, dadgummit) and there were a number of doodles submitted; wonder how I can get them active on DoodleKisses……

That top dog is a top cutie! Thanks for posting. When I read the title I was sure Stanlee had won the contest... of course if he had been entered he would have. ;o)
