Your gift makes a statement about your expectations, intentions, and how you feel. The right choice can mean the difference between making your special someone happy or sending them running for the exit.

WILDWOOD — The Wildwoods Convention Center will go to the dogs Feb. 1 through Feb. 5 as man’s best friend, along with their entourages of groomers, breeders, handlers and owners, strut their stuff during the Boardwalk Kennel Club’s All Breed Dog Show.
Veterinarian Terri Marks’ two French bulldogs, Sherman and Bella, will be among those competing.
