Dogs had their day in Aurora on Sunday as the city offered its fifth annual Pooch Parade at Phillips Park.
A total of 100 dogs – the maximum allowed according to officials – were registered to take part in the event, which included awards for biggest and smallest dogs, best Aurora Pride, costume and trick awards, most energetic, twinsies and crowd favorite.Amy Paul of Aurora and her daughter Fiona, 11, were vying for the crowd favorite award as Fiona walked around in a Flaming Hot Cheetos costume accompanied by her dog Lucy who appeared as Chester Cheetah.
“I think we have something like over 18 to 20 breeds and this is an opportunity that started when the mayor first came in and saw people’s connection to their pets, especially dogs,” Muhammad said. “This offers some good energy that allows for that transition time from summer into fall and just an opportunity for some more family activities.”A big crowd came out Sunday for the Aurora Pooch Parade at Phillips Park.
Mahika Jain, 12, of Aurora, clearly was hoping to win the costume award as she and her dog came dressed as ballerinas.
