Little Guild of St. Francis - West Cornwall, CT

Hey! This is the place! The Little Guild found me a great home, now it's party time!	Yappy Hour is a time for dogs to meet and greet, take a walk to Long Pond and then to socialize	Games! Here Nicky shows his hot dog dunking style.
Meanwhile, back at the dining room, the tables are being prepared.	Sand Road Animal Hospital is one of our table sponsors.	Kevin Bousquet, director of the Interlaken Inn, was our hero, providing everything needed for the success of this event.
Tables with 65 wonderful items and certificates are ready for the bidders to view.	A basket of items for any dog lover's comfort.	Painted mugs, among the many items donated by Zeppa Studio
Silent Auction Items donated by Joan Rivers	Perusing the tables and tables of interesting items.	Hmmmm, so many choices...from dental work to spa treatments!
A magnum of Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 donated by Kent Wine and Spirit	Let me look first and then I shall bid	Live Auction Items
100 inches of the finest cultured pearls from Passports Pearls, Salisbury	One of the seven lots of Joan Rivers Classic collection	Outdoors in the beautiful Interlaken gardens, the dogs socialize in their own ways
A golden moment at a golden event	Did someone say there was going to be food??	Lily is one of the dogs that took the AKC Canine Good Citizen test here. In fact all that took it passed!
Hello, nice to meet you. Wanna play?	Sweet Rosie had a lovely time at the gala.	At the tables, the guests fill the beautiful dining room.
Even inside at the tables, the dogs were welcome and perfect guests.	This is a better height for my meal, thank you very much.	Waiting for her meal to be served.
Table service is appreciated by this little one.	A watch dog. Watching for a plate of food to be delivered!	And here's the buffet table for the dogs' delicacies.
Two tables with items sold for the Little Guild. Everyone needs another teeshirt, right?	An admirer of Madeline Falk's fine portraits.	Jennifer Orzolek displays her fine work available for commission.
Handfelted sculpture of your dog by WoolieDales of Vermont	Art of the dog by Madeline Falk and it could be the art of your dog.	Khurshed Bhumgara, President of the Board of Directors of the Little Guild, thanks one and all.
Khurshed Bhumgara tells us that in 50 years, the Little Guild has rehomed over 20,000 dogs and cats.	And we intend to be around helping homeless animals for the next fifty years.	And finally the day is done. Time to take a special doggy bag, and the auction winnings.
What? You mean it's over? I have to wait another year for a Little Guild gala? Do you know how long that is in dog years??
