From exploring the Andes Mountains along the Inca Trail, to daily chores on his small village farm; readers get a glimpse into the lives of the free-roaming dogs in South America!

The Modern Dating Game: Finding the Perfect Match for your Benefits Program. In this session, the speakers will demonstrate how to better navigate the often-awkward process of vendor selection in this new age of technology and innovation. Employers have long relied on impersonal methods (RFPs) to vet vendors that are cumbersome and outdated.
