Parade updates Sunday March 3

We are SO disappointed to do this, but we have canceled our Mardi Gras Dog Parade scheduled for today due to the threat of bad incoming weather. All participants are invited to walk in our Fat Tuesday parade on Tuesday, March 5th at 5pm. Sorry for the inconvenience and we are looking forward to seeing all of the furry friends and festive floats on Tuesday! Chow for now!
