NAPLES, Fla. – Dogs took over Naples Sunday during the Pets on Third event.
This was the sixth year for the event, and the money raised funds the Naples dog park.
Vendors offered various collars, clothes and even artwork all focused around four-legged friends. Organizers said the event is a huge asset to the community.
“Last year we raised $7,000 at this one event,” said Ed O’Brien, the event organizer. “Over the four years we’ve raised over $20,000 at this event.”
It takes $15,000 a year to keep the park open.
