🐾 THE POLLS ARE OPEN! 🐾

WOW. We we had so. many. dogs. enter Waynesboro’s Top Dog contest (that we couldn't put all the photos in a post) and we had a blast meeting so many of you when you stopped by for treats! If you entered and haven’t picked up your goodies yet, come see us for a Waynesboro bandana, a bag of Zuke's Natural Dog Treats in partnership with Shenandoah National Park Trust, and a few other surprises from Waynesboro Parks and Recreation.

After spending an unreasonable amount of time looking at your dogs, I’m pretty sure I could recognize most of them and call them by name if I saw them in public. 😂 So, if you sent multiple photos, I picked my personal favorite for the voting pool. And if you entered more than one dog and listed their names, I matched names to doggies on vibes alone, so forgive me if I got it wrong.

A couple of things we learned: Molly and Millie are the most popular names in the bunch, and we have quite a few dogs with heterochromia (two different-colored eyes👀).

NOW, TO BUSINESS.
