DogFest Orlando held to help place service dogs for free

WINTER PARK, Fla. — A special canine event was held in Winter Park Saturday as DogFest Orlando took over Shady Park.

The event raises money for Canine Companions, whose mission is to place service dogs with people with disabilities for free.

“Having a dog there you can rely on to not only pick up items for you or help open doors or even just general walking, it just provides such a great independence for people,” said Canine Companions spokesman Adam Goldman.

Canine Companions has placed nearly 8,200 dogs with people since it started 50 years ago

The Favicon for the website, dogsandpurses(dot)com, features an all-black background with a minimalist line drawing of a puppy's head poking out of a stylish purse. The puppy's head is drawn with a cute and friendly expression, making it the focal point of the design. The purse, which the puppy is emerging from, is depicted with clean, elegant lines. The contrast between the black background and the white line drawing creates a striking and modern look for the Favicon.
