Dog Days at Northland Church

 It wasn’t a complete disaster, but the K-9 search and rescue dogs who were suppose to be there before the sanctuary doors opened for the first Sunday service were late arrivals. The dogs were part of Disaster Response Weekend at Northland, A Church Distributed, which encouraged church and community members to ready themselves for the hurricane season, sign up to be disaster response team volunteers, and register if they have disabilities or special needs during natural disasters.

The five dogs and their two handlers showed up midway through the 9 a.m. service, where they waited around in the air-conditioned lobby. When the first service ended, and the lobby filled with worshippers, the dogs became the immediate center of attention — especially the 10-week-old yellow lab pup Mojito.  For a time there, between services, the inside of Northland looked like the front of PetSmart on dog-adoption day.
