The 8th Annual Somerville Dog Festival was held at Trum Field on Sunday. The fundraiser to benefit the Somerville Pet Food Bank featured a variety of exciting dog sports, demonstrations, and multiple “try it” rings in which the public can try sports and games with their dogs to provide fun opportunities for dogs and their people, and also help promote responsible dog ownership in our city. The goal was to provide opportunities for families to enjoy healthy activities in the city with their dog and raise funds to support animals in need.
