Hoagie was invited to attend the Quincy Youth Symphony this week along with Penny, a dog who works at Quincy Junior High School, and Major from the Adams County Sherriff’s Office (not pictured). Hoagie, Penny and Major paraded up the aisles of the auditorium as the youth performed a song in tribute to working dogs. Thanks for the invite!
