2017 Best in Show Winners Keiko and Suki

As you know the 4th is soon approaching andmost know pets do not like fireworks. Two yearsago, the City of Edmonds passed new fees forviolators of the fireworks ban. It was reported toCouncil last year, that less than 10 complaints
came in through the call center. So please – firstconsider not participating in home fireworks andenjoy Edmonds fireworks! Secondly, if you seeor hear neighbors using fireworks, call it in so that
the City can register the complaint and get theaddress of the offender of the law.
