Hi. I posted this on 2 Shiba related forums. I figured that more Shiba supporters is always better! Two questions have come up and I was wondering if someone who has been to this event could answer.
1. can people bring their own dogs are onl rescues allowed to attend?
2. is there any issue with people under legal drinking age to attend since beer and wine are available?
I’d think that leashed pets would be permitted and people of all ages may attend. A few of the people that want to come are travelling a few hours each way, so they dont want to have any issues bringing their pets and/or children.
Thanks and hope to see you there!!!
