Dexter, Missouri - On Saturday, November 5, 2016 K9Bix in downtown Dexter held a fundraiser for Diana's Grove Rescue to help pay for Heartworm treatments.

There were more than 40 canines who are in need of such treatment.  Heartworms kill dogs slowly over years without the preventative given daily or monthly.

The K9 Paws Club decided to hold a Bark Fest Fundraiser with a Doggy Photo Contest, Dog Show, offering professional photos, a silent auction and a performance by Roxie the Dog who played piano on the sidewalk for donations.

Together they raised $700 to help Diana's Grove Rescue which is located in Cabool, Missouri.
