The St. Patrick's Day Parade runs right through downtown St. Paul, MN.
We bring the Irish Wolfhounds and walk the parade with the Native Dog of
Ireland from the Irish Fair. It is a somewhat crazy procession though crowds
of mostly inebriated and rowdy people celebrating their Irish heritage even if
they are just Irish for the day. There are bagpipes, screaming, horns, and
sometimes a wedding proposal. The dogs get to meet all sorts of new people
and are often greeted with chants from the crowd such as "Sexy Dogs! Sexy
Dogs!" For more information, visit: http://www.stpatsassoc.org/
That last 2 years we have also participated in the parades in Minneapolis, MN
and Maple Lake, MN walking with the Northstar Irish Wolfhound Club.
