"A wonderful way to bring pet owners together while finding homes for
animals."
- Lindsay Pease, Whitley County Humane Shelter
"Being a vendor at the Allen County Pet Expo was a great experience and
success for Law's Country Kennel. We were able to not only help the Allen
County SPCA with its mission, but the expo provided us the opportunity to
promote our business, and the ability to begin creating relationships with
hundreds of potential customers. We had a great time, and are looking
forward to next year's event."
- William Law, Law's Country Kennel
