Why)
PawsWay is the sort of place that Pam has always believed
should exist. I was pleased to show her that it actually
did. 
The majority of pets in the Hall of Fame managed to wake their owners after a fire had started.
I chose to photograph this one because the story is a bit more dramatic and because I had an Irish Setter when I was a kid.
This is one of the more heroic incidents enshrined in the Hall. I would have given Grizzly a human medal for bravery.
This one was on the wall outside the building and it expresses a sentiment that Pam certainly agrees with.
