Yesterday was the 29th annnual Do Dah Day festival in Birmingham, Alabama. 
This event which is held in the Highland Park neighborhood, features a parade with floats and walkers - both human and animal, bands and booths. This is the major yearly fund raiser for the Greater Birmingham Humane Society and Friends of Cats and Dogs.
The parade was fun - as always, and the weather was fabulous. Prizes are given for the best float, ugliest pet, best movie themed pet, best costume, best pet/human look alike and other stuff. Stages were set up in Rhodes Park and Caldwell Park and several bands played to entertain the crowd.
There were thousands of very well behaved dogs in the park.
I also saw a turtle, parrot, and snake. Didn't see any cats :-). I'm sure there were a few there somewhere. Several pet adoption agencies were there and I saw a cute dogs with an "Adopt Me" bandana on. I saw him later with a girl who had a big smile. I bet both of them are happy today.
