Hello!<br />
Hello from a very wet Bangalore.<br />
Our summer has concluded and<br />
it’s the monsoons.<br />
I am very excited to be brining<br />
you this issue of the newsletter.<br />
I believe that <strong>PDTE</strong> members<br />
are playing an important role in<br />
increasing our understanding<br />
of dogs. So it’s important for all<br />
of you to be heard.<br />
Darkness can only be<br />
vanquished with light and<br />
ignorance vanquished with<br />
knowledge. That’s why it’s so<br />
important to express and share.<br />
I sincerely hope that all of you<br />
will use this platform to voice<br />
your ideas. They matter and<br />
need to be heard.<br />
