It's a fun event and the sound of all those dogs can be heard for blocks.

I snapped this pic in Carlsbad Village quite some time ago - it's been fun to use for different posts

Have a great weekend

Hi Jeff... sounds tempting, for sure. Not certain my doggie, who is almost 15 and has been diagnosed with cancer, will be around a year from now. (Trying not to dwell on this.) Have a great weekend, yourself. Nina

Thanks, Jeff... it's always hard to lose a companion of many years. We always know the time is coming, but it's still hard to accept when it happens.

Thanks for stopping by. Couldn't make it this year - clients in town.

I've seen some videos and photos of diving dogs - fun to watch. You have to be impressed. There are a number of these competitions - American Diving Dogs

Dog Days of Summer sounds like so much fun Jeff! Man's best friend deserves to get all this attention too! It would be fun to observe how many dogs take their owners for a walk and expect them to act like humans! I'll bet this is one time owners are well behaved too! LOL

I did not make it there this year but did one time in the past. Pretty amazing sight to see all these dogs and their humans. The noise is something else
