I wanted to let you all know about some of our charitable work.  Lois and I volunteer with Lab Rescue of Greater Richmond (LRGR), a non-profit organization that rescues homeless Labrador Retriever dogs and finds them their "forever home".  Lois and I are "foster" parents.  A rescued lab is placed with us, and we take care of them and if necessary, work on basic training, until they are adopted.  We are often asked "why do you do this".  Well, the first answer is that WE CAN.  We are fortunate to have what we have.  The second reason is a bit longer.  When our beloved lab Bluto passed away 3 years ago, we toyed with the idea of getting another dog.  But in her drive to explore all possible options, Lois looked into fostering with a rescue group.  What we landed upon was, if we adopt a new dog, we are helping just that dog.  If we fostered, we realized we could help many dogs.  So............NINETEEN foster dogs later, we are still going strong. 

We also donate photography services for prizes for LRGR fundraisers as well as photograph events in which LRGR participates.  If you would like more information on LRGR, visit the website at www.labrescue-richmond.org
