While not officially part of the dog park per se, the Strut your Mutt event is a fun event for dogs and their hypercreative owners. There’s a parade and prizes and Joe Divincenzo! Get there early on October 26 (9:00 AM, just down the hill — east? from the dog park) to register and lineup for the judging.
Here are some pictures from past years of dogs and volunteers from the Bloomfield Animal Shelter.
