May 10, 2009 The Michigan Humane Society’s 20th annual Bow Wow Brunch attracted 550 to the Ritz-Carlton for auction bidding, brunching, viewing video glimpses
of 1989 and stroking the six pets looking for new homes. Three of them succeeded. Funds raised by the brunch, which was co-chaired by Denise Lutz and Linda Axe, will improve the lives of at least 1,750 animals in need.
