DRESS YOUR DOGS TO THE NINES FOR HALLOWEEN
Halloween is going to the dogs again…as Sunrise MarketPlace and Sunrise Festival 1 Shopping Center co-host one of the District’s most entertaining events—DOG-O-WEEN. The eighth annual event will be held October 11 from 10am to noon in the Sunrise Festival 1 parking lot near Rite Aid. (corner of Greenback and
DOG-O-WEEN features dogs from small, medium and large categories vying for “Barking Lot” rights and Division and Best of Show prizes. The $5 entry fee/donation will benefit Placer SPCA, which will also be on site with mobile adoption services. Registration will begin at 9am, with the competition beginning at 10am. The contest is open to the first 100 dogs in costume. Each registered canine will receive a “doggy bag” with coupons and additional items.
Best of Show prize includes a Petsmart gift card, cash and trophy. Division and place winners will be the recipient of gift cards.
Owners have dressed their dogs in a variety of creative costumes over the years, from commandoes, soldiers, cowboys and ballerinas to athletes, brides and grooms, bumble bees and fairies. Last year’s Best of Show was “Scuba Dog”, complete with air tank, mask, snorkel, life jacket and cool swim trunks.
Dogs must current on all shots, and be on a leash, and muzzles for dogs if needed.
