Victorian Days Meet & Greet, Belvidere, NJ

Please join us for Belvidere Victorian Days!

We M&G in front of Nancy's house about a block from the town green where the festivities are held from 10-4 p.m.

Stroll around the green with your hound (be on the lookout for newspaper photo ops please!) or meet and greet passers-by from the front yard if your hound isn't a social butterfly.

We have Victorian hats and GFNJ donation coats for those dogs who will wear them. We get a lot of attention when we walk the dogs around, and it's a great way to show our dogs off and raise awareness.

This is a pretty stress free day for humans and dogs alike since dogs can rest off leash in the shade in a securely fenced back yard or porch, and we don't have to stand in one place all day. We can take turns watching each other's dogs so everyone gets a chance to check out the vendors, etc. The antique car show alone is worth the trip! (Please be responsible with muzzles for backyard play.) Belvidere Victorian Days Info

Call or email Nancy Barnett (908) 310-9130, or e-mail nancy_barnett@merck.com with questions.
