Every two years, Fred Horning breeds chocolate Labs on his farm in Union Springs. He picks two puppies out of every litter to train as service dogs for children with autism. He works with an organization called Paws 4 Ability that chooses the children who receive the service dogs. Fred's PTSD service animal will be with him during his presentation.


Fred is a talented story teller and I am certain you will enjoy his stories as well as the "labor of love" he provides to so many families.


This program will be held at the Frontenac Museum on Cayuga Street in Union Springs on May 18th at 7pm. Refreshments are provided and the program is free and open to all.
