Dutch Dogs on Parade

As part of the Kinderparade on Thursday, May 9,2024 we're inviting all our hometown dogs to dress in their Dutch costumes (no inspection needed!) and strut their stuff! Holland loves their pups and our pups love a parade. To our canine klompers - it's OK to skip the wooden shoes! All well-behaved dogs (and owners) are encouraged to participate!
