The bichon frise dog Solar and her sister Dave, sporting matching reflective magenta sleeveless vests with aqua padded lining, discovered five books written by Fairfield’s village elders not that long ago. Containing multiple plans and maps, including the lost Open Space and Master maps of 1979, they were unearthed in the middle of Fairfield’s most historic district: at the Fairfield History Museum.. “They’re the wisdom from our past pack leaders,” said Solar through her pack leader. “I would read them, but I’m a dog.”

Solar the Spokesdog and her sister Dave unearthed the books and maps to the treasures of Fairfield. They would read them but they are dogs.
