Donte's Den founder Marsha Panuce and her team took over the Sarasota Municipal Auditorium on Saturday, Oct. 10 to hold Top Dog 2015, a Westminster-like dog show where owners can enter their four-legged friends in playful categories, enjoy fine dining with their canine companions and chill out in one of the Donte’s Den doggie lounges. Donte's Den is a facility offering long term and permanent care for dogs whose owners are unable to care for them due to illness, injury, abandonment or military deployment.
