Mardi Gras Dog Parade a Big Hit in Deland, FL

The 13th Annual Mardi Gras on Mainstreet event was a huge success thanks to the Krewe of Amalee. Thousands of dogs and their 2-legged companions packed the streets for a full day of festivities.

Dog House Parties was there giving out treats specially made by Pookies' Bow Wow Bakery and celebrated several birthdays and even the beautiful bride, Bella!





Many of the posh pooches were decked out in Mardi Gras attire, and some lucky pups had very elaborate means of transportation.

The Dog House Parties Krewe had a blast celebrating (another) Bella's birthday - and she got to pick out her own toy and treat!


Luna's massive presence made a huge hit at all the booths.

The parade itself was a sight to see with more than 70 floats and hundreds of 4-legged friends strutting their stuff! All in all, everyone had a great time!

Paws in the Park

The 17th Annual Paws in the Park was held Saturday 2/12/11 at Lake Eola in Orlando to benefit the SPCA of Central Florida. This year's event was a tribute to the 60's with a Puppy Love theme. Many pets & their humans were decked out in tie-dye and peace signs honoring the love pups of the 60's.

Dog House Parties was proud to support this very important cause to bring awareness, adoptions, and much needed funds to the SPCA of Central Florida. Thousands of people and their pets turned out for the event to enjoy the festivities, cash in on raffle prizes and freebies, and soak up the beautiful central Florida weather.

Lots of lucky pups got to take home some cool gifts & yummy treats from the Dog House Parties' booth. And there was an abundance of sloppy kisses going around in anticipation of Valentine's Day.
