Celebrating the best of breed – in software and pups! 🐶

We were honored to be a part of Ace Hardware's 100 Years of Ace Helpful convention last week, with our Deputy booth including a Puppy Pop-Up!

In partnership with Chicago Canine Rescue and Paycor, this pop-up wasn’t just about bringing smiles — it was about making a difference.

Thanks to the generous donations from fellow vendors and attendees, we raised support for the furry friends of Chicago Canine Rescue. And the cherry on top?

One of the sweet “soda pop pups” found her forever home with a member of the Ace team! See Frannie (formerly known as Fanta) in the pics below ❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello, donate, and help make this event unforgettable.

Here’s to 100 years of Ace Hardware, and many more years of partnerships that make a paw-sitive impact on our communities!
