Throwing a pool party for dogs was the brilliant way that the parks department of Nampa, Idaho decided to raise money for its local dog park. Before the Lakeview swimming pool shut down for the season, a big 'Pooch Party' was held at the Lakeview swimming pool, providing tons of space for dogs to splash and swim.
As well as keeping dogs happy in the water, the event also featured plenty of dog treats and a 1 mile walk for pets and their owners. With all of the proceeds from the Pooch Party going back to support the local Nampa dog park, it's a great way for dog owners to ensure their pets will be entertained for an afternoon, as well as in the future.
