Dog Days of Summer to raise funds for UW police dogs

The “dog days of summer” refer to the hottest days in July and August, but the phrase takes on a new and charitable meaning on Saturday. The first Dog Days of Summer picnic is a fundraiser for the UW-Madison Police Department?s K9 Unit, with all proceeds supporting training, supplies and the acquisition of another police dog to join the three already in the department.
