Bark in the Park

Yesterday was "Bark in the Park" here in Lancaster. This is a fundraising event. We had been looking forward to it all week, deciding to take only three of the dogs. We opted to leave Sunny, our drop eared papillion and Emily, one of the chihuahuas her at home. Sunny does not always do well with other dogs, and crowds make Emily nervous. We took Triton, Elliot and Benji. Triton is a chihuahua with a very sweet disposition, Elliot is a yorkie-maltese mix and Benji is a mixed breed. We groomed them and had them all looking gorgeous for their outing. Unfortunately, the weather turned out to be cold with some rain, and Haley and Skylar were both sick. The girls were heartbroken at the prospect of missing Bark in the Park, so we went for an hour. We were impressed by the love and care so many owners lavished on their little friends. We also found several cool products for our own little ones. All the proceeds go to benefit our local shelter. There were representatives from various Rescue organizations. It is too bad we couldn't spend more time there, but there is always next year!
