[New Orleans, LA] — On a lazy Sunday afternoon in New Orleans, you can’t do much better than a doggie festival.
This past weekend’s Dog Day Afternoon is an annual event to raise funds and awareness for Louisiana’s SPCA. Held at New Orleans’ City Park, the event featured a doggie walk-a-thon — called the Gatsby Strut — raw pet food and vendors, dog acrobatics courtesy of Gail Mirabella and the Dynamo Disco Dogs, and musical entertainment by Amanda Shaw & The Cute Guys.
Music, foods and doggies — a perfect Dog Day Afternoon in New Orleans.
A couple of cats even managed to sneak in, but no one seemed to mind.

Not a cloud in th sky to be seen in any of those photos…looks like the perfect day to head to the park for a day of food and cute (and maybe not so cute) dogs
Hi Glen,
Thanks for the wonderful post about Dog Day Afternoon! The photos are amazing – would it be ok to use them on our Dog Day site?
Thanks,
