CAMP HUMPHREYS, Republic of Korea - Dog lovers here gathered for Pet Fest 2012 at the Humphreys Veterinary Clinic May 5.
The event featured the paws walk, a pet show, face painting, an agility course, pet photos, informational booths, a military working dog demonstration and an awards ceremony.
"We are really happy with the turnout and excited to be a part of the Camp Humphreys community," said Capt. Amy Carlson, officer in charge at the Humphreys vet clinic. "We have many events such as face painting, doggy treats and grooming. Humphreys has been great to us and we have received lots of support. We look forward to continuing events like this today."
The American Red Cross participated in the event to offer knowledge about pet first aid, while the Osan Animal Shelter provided information on pet adoptions.
The dog show had categories such as owner/pet lookalike, best dressed, best pet trick and best in show. Rocko, owned by Blair Bogle, was the biggest winner of the day, winning first prizes in owner/pet lookalike and best in show categories.
"This is a great opportunity to hang out with dog lovers and people with the same hobbies," said pet owner Tom Stout. "This event also provided information for people who are PCS'ing and have pets with them. This was a fun day."
