My daughter loves dogs. When she was 9 months old, she met Coco, my family’s dog, when we visited in December. Coco is a shih tzu, is very calm, and hardly barks. Now, whenever she sees a dog (or any animal, really), she points and says, “Coco!”
When I saw that Westfield Century City was hosting Doggie Street Festival today, I knew we had to go. As much as I would love to have a dog, I know I don’t have the time or energy to take care of one. I applaud anyone who can take care of one and support animal rescues. Visiting animal shelters and going to events such as this one, is a way I can indulge her (and my) doggie fix!
Here are some photos from the event today:
