Steve, Quincy, Chip and I ventured out on Sunday to the Frankenmuth Dog Bowl at Riverplace in Frankenmuth, Michigan. It was an incredibly hot day. I think temperatures were over 90 degrees. The dogs were hot. Steve and I were hot. So, we didn’t do as many activities as we would have liked and we didn’t get as many pictures as I wanted to. However, we did have fun. There were a lot of good vendors there. Doodle Dog Bakery had a booth and there was a booth selling elk antlers and the like (we buy these from Dotty’s Pet Center in Clio and love them). They had a lot of activities happening including: Dock Dogs, Disc Dogs, Sheep Herding, an Off Leash Dog area, a Doggie Dash for all dogs to participate in, Wiener Dog races, Dogs of the World Parade and probably a lot more that we didn’t get to see.
Chip was so incredibly hot that he couldn’t keep his tongue in his mouth. Both dogs were very good because they just wanted to lay in the shade. Our friends met us there with their dyed pink dogs. That was pretty neat. We did take Chip and Quincy to the off leash area for some fun. Chip was playing a lot more than Quincy. He wouldn’t go in the water though.
It was a fun, but hot day. I wish that we could have stayed longer and enjoyed more of the activities, but here is what Chip & Quincy looked like when we got home after only a couple of hours:
It was fun for Memorial Day weekend to go and check out the activities. We also got to see a few of the balloons that were there for the Great Lakes Ballooning Championships.
Here is our whole photo album from the Dog Bowl.
