Here are a few dog related crafts that might to well at your next dog -related event.

A beginner level sewing project could be made from white or tan washable materials. Sell with a marker and your autograph hound is ready to collect names and autographs of new friends. Later at home, the dog can be tossed in the wash or make the signatures permanent with permanent marker or embroidery.

What does the Dog Days of Scugog mean to our past participants?

"Dog Days is the most fun you can have with your best friend. I like it all. I like the raucous fun of the sport of disc dog (especially the freestyle event where people and their dogs demonstrate in time to music), the fashion show is hysterical and the kids really get a kick out of it. A beautiful outdoor setting; not so crowded that you can't enjoy the market or view the competitions, sporting events and demonstrations. You are guaranteed to have a fabulous day" - Paula Bund, owner of two large Golden Doodles.
