Soggy Park Day

Spent yesterday afternoon out on Daniel Island for Daniel Island Park Day at the WHLR booth. Despite the intermittent rain and general sogginess of the day, there were quite a few people out there (although I’m sure there would have been more if it was a nice day).

I only made it out for the afternoon so I managed to miss the fun of setting up, dealing with the rain, moving everything out of the rain and fire ants. The rest of the afternoon was ok though with a lot of people stopping by to meet the pups and dogs. Had a few ask about fostering which was good. WHLR needs all the fosters they can get.

This awesome dog house (or kid’s play house, I suppose, if you don’t have dogs) was being raffled off. Because of the low turnout due to rain, the raffle date for the dog house was pushed back to Oct 23. If you purchase your raffle tickets from Lucia’s Premium Pet next to the Daniel Island Publix, proceeds will go to WHLR.

Luau for the dogs

It was a busy evening for me as I shuttled myself between a couple of events last night.

First up was WHLR‘s Bow Wow Luau fundraiser event.

It was hosted by the folks at Down to Earth, an outdoor garden/living space type place that had a lot of neat stuff: plants, fountains, outdoor furniture, that kind of thing.

There were some nice beachy tunes being played and some great food provided by Square Onion.

There were some great baskets being raffled off and everybody there seemed to be having a good time.

Spa day fun

Had a lot of fun at today’s WHLR Pet Spa Day. A bunch of dogs came by for bathing, grooming and other spoiling. Square Onion provided some very tasty people food and a great time was had by all.
