Bark in the Park is Today!!
It's time to start getting ready! Bark in the Park starts soon! Join us between 10:00a.m. and 3:00p.m. at Turkey Hill Park in La Plata for the most fun you and your dog have had all year!
As I type vendors are putting last minute touches on their booths, and volunteers are taking their places to get ready to welcome you and your dog to Bark! The games are set up, and the prizes are waiting for winners to claim them....will that be you?
Meet our wonderful, adoptable dogs who came out to enjoy the fun (check out Shamira and Teflon, talk about LOVE!), visit with over 50 vendors, and enter your dog in as many contests as you can...just make sure to wear your walking shoes!
So get your leashes and come on out to Walk for the Animals at Bark in the Park!
I can't wait to get the fun started, and neither can the the dogs! See you soon!
