Description:
speaks on the indispensible role of dogs in our lives. David Frei, the famed host of the Westminster Dog Show and a voice for pet therapy everywhere, will be the featured speaker on Saturday, May 17 at a very special event to benefit Pets on Wheels of Delmarva. Frei, himself a pet therapy practioner with his beloved Brittany spaniels, will address the attendees at an event that is at once entertaining, educational and a fundraiser for the Delmarva region’s official pet therapy program. Following a relaxed social time with hors d’oeuvres and cash bar, Frei will entertain the gathering with his remarks about the role that dogs play in our everyday lives—whether pet, show dog, working dog or therapy dog. On a very personal level, he will talk about his involvement with Angel on a Leash, a charity of Westminster which takes therapy dogs into hospitals, longterm care facilities, rehabilitation centers and other patient areas. Frei, who is President and CEO of Angel on a Leash, makes regular visits with his dogs to facilities in the New York City area. He will also share some of the behind-the-scenes stories and information about what goes on at the world’s most pretigious dog show.
