Professional hockey players from the Washington Capitals showed their love of dogs recently when they posed for photographs with pooches awaiting adoption. The photos will be used for a calendar, the proceeds from which will go to Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, in Arlington, Virginia. It’s nice to see these millionaire athletes going out of their way to help animals in need.
