Newtown, CT Responsible Dog Owner Day. We picked up a flyer at Mount Pleasant Animal Hospital when we picked up Riley, the Real Estate Dog from boarding about a month ago. We haven't seen too much about this event posted around town, so we thought we'd post it here.
You may be familiar with Riley, as he gets around Newtown, CT and the surrounding towns quite a bit. Recently, we posted about local dog parks and places to walk your dog.
OK, getting back to Newtown, CT Responsible Dog Owner Day ...
