Balls and dogs definitely go together.

At Bark at the Park, scores of dogs and their people had a great time at Kaufman Stadium on July 22, 2014 at the Kansas City Royals-Seattle Mariners baseball game.

At the event in Kansas City, Missouri,  dogs and their people had a special section, pre-game parade, games, wading pools, tickets to seats at the game, vendors and special activities.  Part of the ticket price benefited Wayside Waifs, a no-kill animal shelter where I volunteer as a photographer of available cats for the website. (I don’t think we’re going to be seeing any Purr at the Park events.)

What a treat to see so many dogs!  Click on any thumbnail to see a full-size photo and to start the slideshow.

 

There are Bark at the Park events at many Major League baseball stadiums.

    What a fun event. I think K.C. has some good no kill shelters and does quite a bit for the welfare of these furbabies. I donate to Art Unleashed which is a silent art auction with the proceeds going to the KC Humane Society and it too is a no kill shelter. Yay!!!

  4. Great idea. We have a pooch in the garden event at the desert botanical garden but i think it fits nicely at the baseball game.
