Have I said that McKinney,TX has something for EVERYONE? Well, I really meant EVERONE! Including the furry, 4-legged members of our family!

On Sunday, February 22, bring the family, including Fluffy, to the 7th Annual Krewe of Barkus Parade in Downtown McKinney. The event is being sponsored by the Art Institute of McKinney and McKinney Main Street.

McKinney's celebration is patterned after New Orlean's Mystic Krewe of Barkus. It was organized to help homeless, abused and abandoned animals in New Orleans. The participants will be awarded prizes - for size categories (xsmall up to xlarge dogs) and for costumes. This year's theme is Classic TV! Think Leave it to Beaver, I Love Lucy and Andy Griffith. I can't wait to see the creativity that is displayed this year.

The parade is SURE to have the kids ooooh-ing and ahhhhhh-ing the whole time! What kid do you know that doesn't like dogs? And dressed up dogs in funny costumes? It'll be a hit, no doubt. And let the kids in on the fun, too! Children can dress up, decorate a wagon or big-wheel and have fun right along with the cute canines.

The fun starts at 2:00 with a costume contest immediately after.

To sign up, go to the AIM website.

So is it doggie dress up time in your home?  I'm afraid my big dog, who is still young and learning manners, would just rip things to shreads.  Thanks for putting this out for all to know how fun McKinney truly is ... we make good causes turn to great times as well.

Connie - My chihuahua would go nuts, so I'm going to keep him home. He'd probably be a tasty treat for a nice big Great Dane. He would look really cute dressed up, though!

Sheldon - Thanks!
