Comments:Annual event during Fiesta. Main event is the parade with tons of dogs in costumes. They also have dog demonstrations, prizes and silent auctions. Check the website for pictures! Great event with tons of goofy pups!
Also nice to know: This is a charity event for the Delta Society (non-profit, all volunteer). They bring animals "Ambassadors" to adults and kids in the hospitals, shelters and extended stay care facilities. I believe this is their biggest fund raiser of the year. Seems like very cool group, anyone can join and they give classes if you would like your pet to become an ambassador.
