Local dog lovers and dog-related businesses are giving back to the community during this month of thanks. Here's a guide to some of these activities. Check back often, as the list will be updated as more events are announced. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thursday, Nov. 26

• Overland Park residents Mike and Tricia Smith are hosting the first of two "Holiday Suppers" from noon until 3 p.m. at their home. This is for seniors in the Kansas City metro who are 60 years of age and older and alone on the holidays. Like the monthly "Thursday Night Suppers," the Smiths have organized the holiday dinners in memory of their deceased Boston Terrier, Molly. The holiday events are also in honor of Camden Point, Mo. Another "Holiday Supper" will be on Christmas Day. For more on these events, visit holidaysupper.com.

• The season of giving is also underway at Tails R' Waggin (6976 W. 152nd Ter., Overland Park).
