Surf Dogs!

K-W Humane Society has an annual fundraiser called Surf Dogs. Owners can come with their furry friends to enjoy an afternoon at Bingemans wave pool. I attended this year's event and took some photos. There were so many dogs there! Michelle O'Driscoll, the volunteer co-chair or the event estimated that about 500 dogs were in attendance. It was a little cold today but many people still made it out!
