Sally-Jayne Tagg explained SAID is a welfare organisation aimed at helping those less fortunate than themselves. She also mentioned it is their 65th birthday in October and they wanted to let the community see who they are. SAID mostly helps dogs, however, they also have a few cats and horses and other animals.

The community brought their dogs to the park and let them run freely. They could also take a walk by the lake and relax at the nearby restaurant while their dogs play. There were even stalls with dog toys, treats and even doggie ice cream.
