Dog party always a hit at Soiree

By Mark Squibb, The Shoreline

Of all the wonderful Kelligrews Soiree events, the dog party at Sgt. Ned Nugent’s Dog Park is a favourite among our four-legged friends.

“Any time you get pets and people together, it’s a good thing,” said Andy’s Pet Town owner Rosanne Dunn, who is sponsoring the event. “Our customers love the party. They look forward to it every year. They look forward to meeting other people, and most importantly, have their dogs meet other people, and meet other dogs.”

Andy’s Pet Town has been supplying free treats and prizes to party pups for nearly a decade now.

“We like to give back anytime we can,” said Dunn. “Over the years we’ve supported a lot of pet charities like the SPCA and Heavenly Creatures, just to name a couple.”

The shop also donates to charities such as Wheels for Wishes and CNIB Guide Dogs.

This year’s party will take place on Monday, July 6, at 6 p.m. Costumes are welcomed.
