When Dogs, Beer, and Ice Hockey Combine

I am a huge fan of a few things (two of the three you probably already know about me): ice hockey, dogs and beer. In fact, I played for the Quinnipiac University Pep Band, which meant I earned my Division I Varsity Letter for playing the trombone at their hockey and basketball games.

When a local animal shelter, Thomas J. O’Connor invited me to participate at an event this past Friday at the AHL game near us (Springfield Thunderbirds), I jumped at the opportunity. It was my first photography gig for the organization, and I had a blast. As you can tell from the photos, dogs were able to attend, and they even had a parade on the ice during one of the breaks between periods. I’m not sure how much money was raised for the organization, but every little bit counts!
