Those who think Seattle is going to the dogs and happen to make a trip to University Village this Saturday (10/4) will find nothing there to dispel that notion. What they would find is FidoFEST, a new annual festival dedicated to our canine companions.

Seattle Humane Society's Walk for the Animals starts at 10:30 am and the rest of the festivities kick off at noon. There will be beauty competitions, contests, a dog-friendly beer garden, a demonstration by the Seattle Police Canine Unit, Doga (dog yoga), (yes, really), and you won't want to miss the opportunity to have a wedding ceremony for your dogs culminating in a "Certificate of Muttrimony."

There's even more that will be happening, officially and of course unofficially, so if you believe that going to the dogs is a very good thing, get out and show your support (and your dog) at FidoFEST.
