Our Afternoon of Furry, Drooly, Barky, Somewhat Unruly Blessings

Last Saturday afternoon, The Hubby and I loaded Jon Farleigh and Dewi into the car and made our way to the community-wide Blessing of the Animals at our local Presbyterian church. We were not the only ones who had the same idea:





In fact, for a sunny Saturday afternoon during prime holiday shopping season, there was great canine* representation. 




Large and small





Young and old




Stinky and mostly not




Clothed and naked :)




From many walks of life.



Definitely blessings.




The little doo doo heads. :)


*One family brought their cat. Our three (cats) did everyone a favor and participated by proxy.

  1. This looks wonderful.

    And oh. my. dog. That Dobie pup is the bomb! Eegad, look at his feet!

    I'm a big sucker for the old dogs, too. And of course, the too cute Corgis. ;)

  8. @All - They are all beautiful, aren't they?! It was a blast just watching everyone interact.

    @Leslie - I just want to eat that little Dobie up! He just stood there like that through the whole thing. :)

    @Houndstooth - We have a dog mall, a few festivals and services like this, but barely any off-leash areas in the whole city. I guess it's better than nothing, though. :)
