Your weekend plans just got a whole lot cuter!
We sit down with Downtown Manager Alicia Hartley to talk about Historic Downtown Perry's Dog Days of Summer, a pet-friendly event built for local shopping with your furry friend.
In this episode, we share everything dogs and their humans can enjoy during the event, including free doggy waste bag dispensers from the Main Street Advisory Board, exclusive Perry dog bandanas from Visit Perry, and the Pup-arazzi photo station on the City Hall lawn.
Alicia explains how the event came to life as a creative way to support local businesses during the summer months and introduces the new Paws Approved program, which helps visitors easily identify downtown shops that welcome leashed dogs inside.
You'll also hear about dog watering stations, complimentary treats, special promotions, and even puppy ice cream pup cups from Scoopology.
If you love dogs and shopping local, this episode is for you!
