Recycled Rotts would like to thank Tom from Huggable Hounds for taking canine portraits and Laurie Kay for the massage therapy on our wonderful canine friends. There was lots of game playing going on for humans and dogs. The hot dog eating contest had lots of compeitition this year with Nash Sorvino reclaiming his title. We need some competition for next years "My Dog Can Do That" Buddy McKay has taken first place three years in a row. Congratulations!!!!! All those rotties out there need to start training for next year!! The food was awesome as usually; thank you to my husband Kerry for doing an outstanding job. Thank you to all the volunteers who came early and stayed late to set up and take down (in the rain), you guys are the BEST. I want to make sure that everyone who attended knows how greatly Recycled Rotts appreciates your generousity and support for this rescue. You have made it a success and we thank you!!! We look forward to a bigger and better picnic next year. - Patti Samiec (President)

I want to thank Patti for keeping the organization running. It's not easy to keep all the volunteers focused on their individual jobs. Managing a team like our diverse group cannot be easy. She keeps her eye on the dogs the whole time. Our Rotties thank everyone too.... You saw it all at the picnic didn't you? The thanks in their eyes and their slurpy kisses are the best, aren't they? Enjoy some pictures and VIDEOS (new) from our Alumni Picnic. - Debby Pizzato (webmaster)
