How the group began!

Tara Gamby, Founder of the Rochester Small Dog Play Group, was actively involved in different Pug groups such as the WNY Pug Organization and Pug Meetup. But, she also had a Poodle and a Long-haired Chihuahua at home that wanted to come along to all the Pug events but could not. So, Tara decided to start a group where all her dogs could go and play!
