Pampering our pooches
WATTLE Range Council is excited to announce the return of the Dogs’ Breakfast at War Memorial Park in Penola on Sunday, October 12, from 10am to 1pm.
The annual Dog’s Breakfast was launched last year at the Millicent dog park and is supported by funding from the Dog and Cat Management Board.
The event aims to promote responsible pet ownership and fostering community connections within the Wattle Range area.
Wattle Range Council’s director development services Emma Clay said the program was a fantastic opportunity to meet your neighbours and their furry friends.
“Following the overwhelming success of last year’s breakfast event, Council is excited to bring it back this year,” Ms Clay said.
The event will also coincide with Penola’s Woof & Wine Festival on the Saturday, offering a fun way to finish up the school holidays.
“This year’s program will feature expert advice and demonstrations from Penola, Naracoorte and Casterton Veterinary Centres, along with Council’s General Inspectors, offering tips and tricks to help enrich your pet’s life,” MsClay said.
Attendees are invited to join the popular Paws Parade, have professional portraits taken of their dogs and bring their puppies to participate in an on-site puppy school.
In addition, there will be plenty of prizes and vouchers to be won, as well as free hotdogs and hot drinks provided to the first 100 guests on the day.
“The park will be filled with a variety of dog-related stalls, creating a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere,” Ms Clay said.
“We encourage all attendees to bring a picnic blanket, relax, and enjoy a morning surrounded by wagging tails and friendly faces.”
Full program details, including dates, times, and locations, are available on the Wattle Range Council website.
