Puppy love had crowds flocking to St. Ann’s Academy on the weekend. While the national historic site routinely celebrates love in its chapel, this affair took place on the beautiful grounds.
Pet-A-Palooza, Victoria largest outdoor pet festival, featured dock diving dogs, wiener dog races, a puppy stampede and puppy and goat yoga. The “running of the bulls” (French and English bulldogs race) was a favourite at the eighth annual two-day festival which ran Aug. 18-19.
The puppy and goat yoga had all profits from the yoga classes benefiting the Victoria Humane Society, and all the puppies involved were up for adoption.
Pet-A-Palooza began in Victoria in 2010 and has since spread to Calgary and Vancouver.
