Our frequent customer and friend,  Lauren Letellier, shared her impressions and photos of Saturday’s 2nd Annual Doggie Day Show.

What better way to celebrate the Dog Days of Summer than at the Copake Hillsdale Farmer’s Market annual “Doggie Days” event?

Threatening skies did not deter the community’s four-legged champions, who assembled with their pet parents at the Roe Jan Park’s Harvest Barn on Saturday, August 6.
