Neighbourhood's gone to the dogs, er, pets..

 One of our local pet stores, Cosmopawlitan, sent us a little note about a photo contest they're running till the end of the month. More details below.

Anyhow, we asked what they knew about pets in the area and they pointed us out to a Toronto Star map that showed that there are 485 licensed dogs in the general area, or 19 dogs to every 1000 people. Who knew that?
 
Cosmopawlitan's photo hunt contest
There are many beautiful but unknown spots around here, so we have a small list of locations for pet owners to take photos of their pets:
1. PawsWay
2. One of: Little Norway Park or Music Gardens or HTO Park
3. Background of a boat on Lake Ontario
4. Harbourfront Community Centre
5. At our store

The grand prize is a free grooming session, and there are also secondary and participant prizes, so everyone wins! The contest deadline to submit photos is April 30th.

With the gorgeous weather we're getting this week, a lot of people are starting to venture outside again! There are tons of pet owners in the neighbourhood, so we're hoping to get the message out.
