Yesterday morning the 33rd Annual Furry Scurry took place in Denver's Washington Park. This is an event organized by and which benefits Humane Colorado and starts with a 2-mile dog-walk through the park, "followed up with fun, food trucks, the Flealess Market and more." Last year I was late getting to this event and missed the start of the walk. And so this year I made sure I left plenty of time to walk to the event from my condo, thus allowing me to take the photograph above right after the dog-walk started. Last year organizers estimated around 12,000 people and 5,000 dogs were in attendance, making this one of the largest dog-walks in the country. I suspect yesterday's event was just as well attended, all for the benefit of the cats, dogs, horses, and other pets in the care of Humane Colorado (formerly known as the Humane Society of Colorado). Definitely worth getting up a little earlier on a Saturday morning to attend.
