The West Village Dog Owners Group was founded over fifteen years ago with the purpose of establishing off-leash recreation facilities for dog-owners and their pets. Due to the lack of public parks in the West Village, WVDOG located potential dog-run sites, lobbied public officials and Community Board 2 for the space, then built, insured and operated the dog run without any public funding.
On Halloween they have a party at this dog run where their dogs come dressed in costume to party with all their friends. This year we were happy to be a part of it by providing them with a cake to look like a dog in costume, assorted cupcakes & homemade all natural dog treats for the dogs' goodie bags & prize baskets! Through raffles they were able to raise funds to donate to the Mayor's Alliance for their programs to help shelter animals, a very worthy cause indeed :o)
Here are some pictures of the costumed dogs from that night..
