According to the flyer, Bark & Brew will feature a dog parade, dog races, costume contests, presentations, and vendor booths. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to buy your pup an unnecessarily elaborate costume, congrats. Your moment has arrived!<\/p>\n

The event is also more than just letting dogs run around looking silly for our viewing pleasure. Bark & Brew promotes awareness of Texas Lions Camp, Leader Dogs for the Blind, and World Services for the Blind.<\/p>\n

And yes, your dog can join you, participate in the costume contest, the parade, and the races. Still, there is one very important requirement: participating dogs must have current vaccination records. Be sure to bring the paperwork to prove your dog has had all its shots!<\/p>\n

Whether your pup is an Olympic-level runner or a professional couch potato, I’d say this is a pretty solid way to spend a Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Mark your calendars now for October 11th, and get out there and find a costume for your dog! (And send me pictures afterward. I need to see all the dogs in all the costumes, always. Thanks.)<\/p>\n

Bark & Brew takes place at The Range on Sunday, October 11th, from noon to 5 at 3116 122nd Street.\u00a0<\/p>\n
