Bobbing for Hot Dogs, Fastest Fetch, Sneaker Sniffer — those are just a few of the games the dogs will be playing at this year’s Dawg Gone Walk & Fiesta, a FUNdraiser for the Brown County Humane Society.

Join us on May 21 from 1 to 3:30 p.m. at Deer Run Park in Nashville for an afternoon of dawg-gone fun for humans and their furry canine companions. There will be games, contests, pampering stations, information booths and even shopping.

This year’s event will be back at our old location at Deer Run Park in an expanded spot next to the creek.

There are plenty of contests, including Fastest Licker, Best Kisser, Best Costume, Biggest Dog, Wet T-shirt, Best Trick and more.

The games are fun for dogs of all sizes and abilities.

For some dogs it’s an opportunity to show off their skills; for others it’s a chance to just bask in the attention.

Games cost $1 each, so be sure to bring plenty of cash.

Of course, there will also be the walk: a parade of all of the dogs at the event and an introduction of shelter dogs available for adoption.

Plus, the male and female dogs that raise the most money are crowned as royalty and receive fantastic prize baskets.

Special thanks to all of the sponsors who make this event possible, including corporate sponsors Bloomington Veterinary Hospital, Jones Law Offices, the Tony Stewart Foundation, the Werling Charitable Foundation and Zacks Investment Management.
