The place for pets, and their owners

Spring animal blessing season is underway

April
30

The first one I know of is happening Sunday at the Hammond Musuem & Japanese Stroll Garden, 28 Deveau Road in North Salem.
There seemed to be a lot of interest in these last fall, so if you know of any, please post the information here. Thanks.
Here’s a photo from last year’s event at Hammond:

I like the two dogs to the right getting to know each other. Details of the event after the jump…


44th Annual Blessing of the Animals

Follow bagpiper Kevin O’Hagen as he leads the procession into the garden. Native American Indian Wendell Deer with Horns of the Lakota Sioux, Father Jude from St. Joseph’s Church in Croton Falls, Rabbi Jason Nevarez from Temple Shaaray Tefila, Mt. Kisco, Zen Priest Jane Dai-on Shuman of Twining Vines Sangha, Purchase, and Interfaith Minister Reverend Janice Rost of Pleasantville, will bless your pet.

About this blog
