Pet lovers gather for Dog Days

TYLER – East Texas pet lovers gathered at Bergfeld Park in Tyler on Saturday for a Dog Days of Summer Festival where pet owners could get vaccinations and even adopt a new furry friend. On top of animal services like vaccinations, microchipping and deworming, pets and their owners also got to take part in dog races, a musical sit game and a best dressed pet contest. The festival also featured several local vendors and food trucks with donations benefiting the Pets Fur People Rescue Fund.

Pets Fur People, Angel Paws Advocates, Pawsitive Place Rescue and O’Malley Alley Cats all brought out animals to Saturday’s festival for loving East Texans to adopt.
