Pugs look so cute in their little suits! If it's
California and it's cold outside (say 65 degrees), then
you'll see people pushing their babies (dogs) in the
stroller with some clothes and sweaters to keep them
warm. This is not a joke. The pug show above in his
stroller wears a Hawaiian outfit, with a jazzy shirt and
lei around his next, plus a straw hat.
While the grownups
celebrate
Oktoberfest with the fake, funky chicken each year in
Huntington Beach, those beers and cheers never last.
In come the pooches, and they have their way of getting
in on the act. A special event fundraiser called
Pugtoberfest in Southern California raises money for
animal care, and offers barks, growls, plenty of sniffs
and licks for the participants.
Dogs tend to get a
little impatient and bored if you don't keep them
moving, so the day of merriment includes contests and
lots of space to walk around the park. You'd expect to
see a few surfer dudes or local beach pooches and the
event seldom disappoints.
It is but one of the
many fun items featured in California for dogs. One of
our very favorites after the dog blessing and Haute
Easter Parade in Long Beach is the
World's Ugliest Dog Contest at the fair held in
Petaluma each year.
