In past  we have had many very enlightening and exciting speakers. For example, author Rob Gutro spoke to us about his book “Pets in the Afterlife.” Rob helped us to better understand the afterlife and how we can identify when a pet or even a human contacts their loved ones. Rob was a comfort to many of us who lost pets during the year. We also  had Dr. Judy Morgan DVM, who is a holistic veterinarian. Dr. Morgan explained the benefits of an all-natural diet, especially for canines that have a tendency for allergies and how to cook for our canines. Botevenings were very informative.
