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 fellow dog-lovers from 1 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday, May 20 at Deer Run Park in Nashville for an afternoon of doggone fun for humans and their furry canine companions. There will be games, contests, pampering stations, information booths and even shopping.
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 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.
