For those that are not familiar with the Gardenfest of Lights during the holidays, you do not know what you are missing.  Every holiday season the Lewis Genter Botanical Garden displays more than a half of a million lights in botanical themes throughout the Garden.  You can find some images from last year’s Gardenfest of Lights by going to http://lewisginter.org.

And, on January 8, you can include your well behaved leashed dog and enjoy the lights and the garden displays.  Remember, your pet’s admission goes directly to the SPCA in Richmond, Virginia.  Visit the Richmond SPCA by clicking here.

I look forward to seeing you there.  I will be the one with one or more of my labrador retrievers and a Contain-A-Pet shirt on!  Happy New Year!

Learn how to administer immediate, temporary care that will sustain your pet until you can get to the vet. You’ll also learn emergency procedures such as CPR and rescue breathing, and you’ll get to take home tips on providing daily care and helping your dog or cat be healthy and happy.

The class will be 4 hours long and you will receive a certificate for attending. The course will cost $40.00. Please bring a bag lunch or dinner.
