Opportunity for Dogs in Phoenix: Dogs’ Day in the Garden

Interesting thing just came across my desk right when I was getting fed up with the chilly rainy day here in Vancouver. Now this has got me dreaming about a winter trip to Arizona. There might be some cool things for dogs to do there. And when you go to the Desert Botanical Garden, let me know all about the TREATS!  Check this out....

The event will include vendors sampling the best dog food and TREATS and special presentations ranging from making TREATS to keeping dogs safe in the desert environment. Visitors and their dogs can go for a walk on Garden trails, heel for family photo opportunities, and learn about pet-friendly landscaping tips.  Chihuly in the Garden is included with admission ticket for Dogs’ Day in the Garden.
