Pug Health Fund Grooming Table Raffle
A beautiful hand painted Grooming Table was donated by Jim and Cindy Tomsic for the 2017 PDCA Health Fund Raffle in Ft Worth.  The table had a Fort Worth theme and received much attention as tickets were pre-purchased by those who could not attend the National Specialty, and were also sold during the week in Ft Worth. 
 Malina Dorchak was the lucky winner.  Thanks to everyone who supported this great cause and to Jim and Cindy for their donation. 


Start saving your pennies, as they are already working on an Indianapolis, Indiana, themed table for the 2018 National!!
