Half Moon Bay | Pooches on Parade & Doggie Bark-BQ

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Tails will wag at Pooches On Parade’s 4th Annual event (that’s 28 in dog years) July 4, 2012. Starting at noon, the public is invited to watch pooch parents proudly parade their pets’ patriotic side down Main Street in Half Moon Bay. Don’t have a dog? No worries. John and Marcia, event organizers, bring their imaginary dogs, Cuff and Link. A stuffed animal also works just fine for parade purposes.

Parade judges will be looking for the pooches wearing the most fun and creative costumes. Categories include: Bast Canine Couture, Best Look-a-Like, Best Float and Most Humorous. Prizes include a one night stay at the Ritz, 25 pounds of dungeness crab, and more.

Take advantage of all the opportunities to pre-register and the event will be free. If you wait till the parade there will  be a $10 registration fee.
