I normally only do one post per day ...but that would be almost impossible for today. My first post will be recognizing those businesses who helped make the Bangor Dog Days of Summer Festival such a success! Money raised today makes us that much closer to getting the large dog area expanded to twice it's size!!!
No particular order ~
Lola was thrilled to see Sara (the girl on the right) from Pet Smart who is the one responsible for her great haircut. FYI ~ she is in-between cuts at the moment.
Silas was also thrilled to be the owner of a new Pet Smart Frisbee.
Rebecca from Renaissance Dogs was there showing dogs how to jump through the tire (this dog was not sure)
...run through the tunnel (still not sure)
...walk the Dog Walk (seriously)
While Rebecca's dogs sat patiently wanting to show off their stuff ...and also wondering who was playing on their equipment.
This dog did great going over the jumps ~ although, I think we should say walking:)
...and especially loved the height of the Dog Walk.
Mutt Nose Best was giving dog washes for a donation! If you look back at Saturday's post, you will see why this Great Pyrenees needed a bath.
...and this guy wasn't quite sure he needed a bath
...and some dogs had all hands on board (or dog)
...and this one knew ~ he needed a drink, not a bath!
This little guy is sporting his squeaky clean self!
If you see their vehicle around (and who can miss it), you may be able to get a dog wash or pick up some great products ~ Lola fell for U. Berry Itchy shampoo and conditioner. Bonus ~ Sara from Pet Smart said "Bring it with her for her next grooming!"
Lola also was thrilled to see Darling's Ice Cream Truck there! ...again, taking donations of any size for the ice cream of your choice. Of course, Lola loved the Pup Cup:)
Best in Show Paws was providing nail trims. Lola is normally not a fan of getting a pedicures, but these guys know what they're doing. First off every dog gets a gentle muzzle (my thoughts were that this would not work, but remember the word gentle) and then she got to wear the thunder shirt ...and then she fell into a blissful state as her nails were trimmed. She was so relaxed, I think she wished she had more than four paws:)
After the nail trim, they massaged the pads of her paws with balm ...oh yeah, that's after removing the ice cream sticker:)
I know we will be following them to other locations. Don't forget to like them on Face Book.
One of the best vendors attending was Pet Wok. They are Bangor's premiere service for spoiled dogs! They not only provide dog walking services, but Chef Carl actually prepares homemade fortified dog food which you can pick up or have delivered.
Their dogs Tessie
...and Frank fit right into the business ....and I am sure they make great food testers:)
This dog couldn't help but take a taste :)
FYI ~ We brought some home for Lola and added it to some of her dry dog food. She gobbled it down and looked for more. I am definitely going to "like" them on Face Book.
Again, a HUGE THANK YOU from all of the dogs who are in love with the Bangor Dog Park and anxiously waiting for the expansion of Phase 2! Woof Woof (that's Thank You in dog talk)!
