Animal Family Veterinary Hospital in Commerce City, Colorado, is having a community appreciation event on August 6th. There will be a tour of the facility and free food and drinks. Adams County Animal Shelter will have their mobile adoption center set up, and FetchMasters will be there with a demo dog on hand to answer any dog training and canine behavior questions you may have.

Bring your kids along too! Have them bring an injured stuffed animal so they can learn how to bandage it. There will also be face painting.
