No, Al Pacino didn’t show up, but if you watch this short but very sweet video of the event, you will see dog park friends Henry and Orwell win awards for Most Congenial and Skinniest Waist, respectively.

Thanks you to Obal’s for sponsoring this fund raiser for the Bloomfield Animal Shelter. It was a hot day and the spray tent was much appreciated. It was fun to hang out in a social situation with our canine companions. Where else can one go to enjoy a beverage without having to leave the dog behind? Maybe we can get dog park advocate Joe D. to have a “Bring your dog to McCloone’s Boat House” day.

These were taken on Sunday, May 26th.  Can you spot your favorites?

With his halo of fuzz and enormous paws, Benny the Bernese puppy is a dog park favorite. Check out this slideshow where he and bulldog Cooper play in a corner of the enclosure. Big sister Ava has a cameo.

Watch as Henry worships at the paws of Ava, a Bernese. Sure, Bennie is cute, but Ava is a queen!
