This event which appeared in your North Forty News did everything except honor our K9 military heroes and the veterans that accompanied them. Wade and Ruby Ridpath from War Dog Memorial Colorado were treated horrible by the Old Town Library in Fort Collins!

I’ll try to be very brief but also feel I need to express my feelings by the way this placed expressed their feelings towards veterans.
After completing 3 tours in Vietnam and retiring after Desert Storm, I find this treatment by a public government facility very disrespectful. I cannot understand how a government employee can threaten, verbally and then physically assault a veteran or any patron that visits its establishment. I would not be here today if it weren't for these wonderful K9 Warriors. I owe my life, as many do, to these great K9 Veterans! Guess there are still many people still out there that don't appreciate what has been given to them by the sacrifices of many. What this facility is really saying "Thank You For Your Service, now get out of here and use the back door". Thank you Poudre Public Library District for showing how you support all our military around the World!

This all occurred in front of children and those who traveled miles to see these K9 Heroes in person.

Just thought you would be interested in this event you tried to promote in a positive manor.
