Bring your best canine friend for some dogs-only swimming fun at The Water Mine during Dog Daze on Saturday, Sept. 7 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. This waterpark will be open just to dogs for an end-of-the-season celebration.
During this popular event, dogs can play, swim and enjoy the waterpark. Their human friends can enjoy a canine resource fair with pet-related vendors and information about more fun opportunities for dogs across the county.
