This is a time for Greyhounds, canine friends, and their humans to get together to just have fun! Come and see old friends and meet new ones too!

This is H.O.T.'s major fundraiser each year. This year, proceeds of the Fair will be used to help defray our growing veterinary bills. Currently, H.O.T. has two Greyhounds who are in poor physical condition with heartworms.

This year, planned activities include (but are not limited to):

H.O.T. Spa - Pet manicures and pedicures and ear cleaning for a nominal fee.

Design A Leash Booth - $7.00 - decorate a leash for your dog with color and bling!

Children's activities, which will include games of chance and other fun stuff

Pet and Human massages - $1.00 per minute!

Greyhound Kissing Booth - $1.00 per smooch! - and we will have a four-month old Greyhound puppy who will be happy to share a kiss or two with you!

The ever popular Pet Costume Contest will be held right before the Grand Prize Raffle drawings at the end of the day!

Dash Pet Contests - We have some new, special surprises being planned for dogs and their owners!

We will once again have our Silent Auction tables running throughout the day with some pretty spectacular items on the all-day and reserve auction tables

Awesome Raffles!

Wacky idea: Get a cat

Cats, cats and more cats! The Humane Society of San Antonio is "feline" kind of crazy trying to keep up with all the furry sweethearts showing up at its door. So the society started Wacky Cat Wednesdays -- midweek, every-week events that offer a chance to adopt a kitty 1 or older for just $25.

Nature's Variety expands recall

March 8: Nature’s Variety is voluntarily recalling all Chicken Formula and Organic Chicken Formula products with a “Best If Used By” date on or before 2/5/11.

Although researchers at Pennsylvania State University are getting closer to developing an artificial nose that would replicate a dog's sense of smell, they haven't announced a breakthrough yet.

Pet supplies needed

Animal Friends Humane Society desperately needs pet supplies to care for its homeless dogs and cats.

Rescuing animals heals the soul — some

Melissa Fletcher Stoeltje: Not long ago in this space, I told you about Donner, the beautiful, starving pit bull we rescued from the streets of West Side San Antonio.

Cathy M. Rosenthal: Black light reveals urine stains

If you smell urine, but can't put your eyes on it, then wait until dark, turn off the lights and turn on a black light to find the stain.
