Dog owners seek blessings at Humane Society

View original: SouthCoastToday

Dozens of dog-owners had their pets blessed at the SouthCoast Humane Society & Shelter on Saturday, some with canine friends in tow, others with the memories of those deceased in their hearts. The third annual event was organized in concurrence with the feast of St. Francis de Assisi, the 13th-century Italian friar and patron saint of animals.
