LAUREN & NATE with SHILOHSHILOHNAN & ANNIEThanks to everyone who stopped by the booth to tell us about their adopted Red Lake animals and to those who stopped by to learn more about Red Lake Rosie’s Rescue. It was great hearing stories about those who loved their dog or cat so much that they chose to adopt another Red Lake companion animal.
