(All sizes & all happy. -Island Rec photo)

Island Rec’s 2009 K-9 Carnival was a big success with over 300 people, and about 100 dogs in attendance. The dogs enjoyed a day of playing, greeting, sniffing, competing, eating and barking! It was the first time the event was held in September, but the weather was picture perfect for the event.

pie eating contest, dancing dog contest, agility demo and a few general participant pictures.

Dogs were entered into a “Strut Your Mutt” Parade, and competed in a variety of contests, such as “Pie Eating”, Best Costume, Dancing, Basic Obedience and more. There were many dog related vendors on hand to share information and services to keep dogs and their owners well educated and entertained.
