There's a waiting list to give up a dog in Bangor. Sunday, we do something about it.

The Bangor Humane Society has been at it since 1869, and right now our shelters are carrying more dogs than they were built for. This Sunday, Pet Care by Lindsay and The Furniture Gallery turn a Broadway parking lot into a fundraiser to keep pets fed, healthy, and home. Plus: sidewalk-surveying robots roll into Bangor neighborhoods, the Sidewalk Art Festival takes over downtown Saturday, Peter Richmond's summer heat tips for dogs, and two good dogs — Charlette and Theo — looking for their families.
