Patriotic Pit Bulls

HugABullers and dogs were proud to participate in this year's 2009 Canada Day parade through downtown Vancouver.


Hunter (formerly Rio), newly matched with his forever family through HugABull, dressed for the occasion and marched with a big bullie smile.


HugABull foster dog Edward came out with us wearing an "Adopt Me" vest, which drew a lot of attention and inquiries. He was a bit overwhelmed by all the activity, but behaved beautifully. He'll be a pro Ambassadog some day.


The Hugmobile.


Walter loved being front, centre and amongst the crowds...anywhere, as long as he's part of the action.

You've heard of face-painting? Peaches demonstrates the fine art of dog stenciling!



Muay proudly carried her country's flag for almost the entire walk...serious fortitude.


Ever-social Maggie worked the crowds...



Arlo wowed the spectators with his tricks.



And at the end of it all, we managed to round up a bunch of tired but happy dogs for a group photo. Next stop is the Vancouver Pride Parade on August 2nd. Will we see you there?
