SPECIAL EVENT: Celebrate Mexican Independence Day Doggy Style

ABOUT THE EVENT:
In place of Cinco de Mayo, we decided to be culturally appropriate and celebrate Mexican Independence Day instead, which takes place on September 16th. Just like July 4 in America or Bastille Day in France, Mexican Independence Day celebrates freedom. We love that Mexican Independence Day honors a brave holy man who gave his life to free his country. And there is nothing sweeter than freedom during covid times! Come celebrate with us as we incorporate fun activities for dogs and their people into our celebration.

Our event will start at Henry Law Park in Dover, check in at our table to receive a Mexican sweet surprise and a Sombrero for your dog.

Get your photo taken with Sit.Stay.Smile. Pet Photography for $5, proceeds benefit our Charitable Partner’s Program.

Join us for doggy games and activities to celebrate the day as well as a walk on the Riverwalk through Dover to Auspicious Brewery where we will enjoy different beverages, including kraft kombucha, cider, chai tea, coffee, spritzers and other libations (additional fee). For anyone interested, we will order food from Dos Mexican Eats (at Auspicious Brewery) and bring back to Henry Law Park for a picnic to finish off our celebration (additional fee).

In addition, participants will receive an entry towards our September giveaways (must sign in), which will be drawn on October 1st. Earn an additional entry into our monthly giveaway if you or your dog comes dressed in Mexican garb.
