Hey fellow #NewWest dog people! Did you know there is a whole day dedicated to dogs having fun and playing silly games in our fair city? That’s right! the 11th Annual Doggy Fun Day is coming up on Sunday August 29th at the playing field just above the dog off-leash area in Queens Park. The action happens from noon to 3PM.

Events include the Royal City Rockets Dog Agility Team putting on a show at 12:30pm and 2:30pm, displays and prize draws, and long time favourite doggy games: egg and spoon race, 3 legged race, the Howl-A-Long, Best Doggy Tricks, the Look-a-Like contest and the 4 paws up famous BOBBING FOR WIENERS.  No kidding. I don’t make this stuff up.
