Check out Phoenix! Dogs’ Day in the Garden

My owner used to live in Arizona. I never wanted to go there (too many coyotes) but this caught my eye. They LOVE dogs at the Desert Botanical Garden and have a special event for them.

The Desert Botanical Garden recently announced another Dogs’ Day in the Garden.

The Garden has gone to the dogs! Take advantage of this special opportunity to bring the whole family, dogs included, to the Garden. Spend time in the “doghouse” with vendors sampling the best dog food and treats. Sit and listen to special presentation ranging from health dogs treats to keeping dogs safe in the desert environment. Go for a walk on Garden trails, heel for family photo opportunities, and participate in craft activities for both children and dogs. Don’t miss this tail-wagging good time! 

All dogs must be on a leash and remain on marked trails at all times. All dogs must be up-to-date on all vaccinations and registrations. Handlers are required to pick up after their dogs and properly dispose of their waste. Desert Botanical Garden reserves the right to refuse entry to or remove any dog thought to be dangerous to other dogs or visitors. Dogs will only be admitted to the Garden between the hours of 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. Programming is subject to change. 

WHEN:                  Sunday / November 16, 2014 / 8 a.m. - 2 p.m.
