Team Heidi had a wonderful day at the Susan G. Komen (@susangkomen) Connecticut MORE THAN PINK Walk in Hartford! 💗🐾
We were so happy to be there with our favorite bestie, Renee Dinino from WFSB Channel 3 (@reneedinino, @wfsbnews), who hosted this wonderful event.
A special surprise was seeing our ACES friends there supporting the walk! We were so glad to take this great photo together. Heidi was also joined by her sisters Libby, the Australian Labradoodle, and little Giselle (GG), along with our Puppies Behind Bars CT teammate, K9 Nash (@k9nash_farmingtonpd).
We love coming together at community events through ACES. This one was especially meaningful as we honored survivors, supported those facing breast cancer, and remembered loved ones. We left with happy hearts and wonderful memories🐾🐾🐾🐾🦴🦮🩷

On Wednesday and Thursday, I was honored to be invited to the @aces_connecticut ECA college Rep Portfolio Day! 🎨🎓🐾
I was there to offer comfort and support as my ECA besties met with college representatives and shared their talents, hard work, and plans for the future. I’m so proud of them!
We also took some wonderful photos together. What a special couple of days celebrating all they’ve accomplished🐾🐾🐾🐾🦴🦮🎨🎭🖌️

Hi, friends! 🐾 Heidi here!
I had a wonderful time visiting my bestie Lily at her school, ACES Bassett Road! Lily is there full time, and we had so much fun spending time with the students and creating smiles and joy together.
After our visit, Lily and I found a cozy spot for a bestie picture—and a little snuggle! Bestie snuggles are the perfect way to wrap up a happy school day🐾🐾🐾🐾🦴🐕🐕‍🦺
XOXO Heidi and Lily 🩷
