- Meet the Author: Don Landy
1 p.m. July 25
Landy's work "Unconditional Love - On loan from God" is a love story. More than that, it is a learning experience. This is not just another dog story. It is a fast paced romp with a few tearful moments. Follow a trip through canine parenthood and learn what so many pet owners already know - love doesn't end with death, it continues in the form of memories that last a lifetime.
