Resident dapple mini-dachshund, Dapper, along with B&B graduate, Tinkerbell, visited the Environmental Science Club at Gabrielino High School on 10/28/03. They were accompanied by B&B's humane education coordinator, Kathy Fuller (above).
One of the co-presidents of this important club is a long time B&B volunteer. Jennifer is seen below with Dapper and fellow member, Lisa.

A big thanks goes out to the club for donating to the worthy cause of protecting our furry friends who don't have a voice of their own...
