Did you have fun at the Richmond Dog Festival?

Alyson McCune from the Enrichmond Foundation writes:

On Saturday, September 29, dog owners, dog enthusiasts, and organizations who work within the dog community gathered for a celebration in Shockoe Bottom of all things dog! The 1st Annual Richmond Dog Festival included over 13 restaurants and food trucks, 34 artisan, merchant, & corporate vendors, and over 6,000 attendees. Festival goers were able to adopt a dog from the SPCA, Richmond Animal League, or FETCH A Cure, buy merchandise such as a doggie bandana from NautiDog Designs or a collar from The Posh Pug, and enjoy a Richmond Police Department K9 demonstration amongst other activities, all while enjoying a local beer and delicious food with their four-legged friend! This event was made possible due to the generosity of our sponsors, Holiday Barn Pet Resorts, FETCH A Cure, and 2SpeakDog.
