Grab your leashes and join us for a fun-filled day of live music dedicated to helping animals at the sixth annual Pet Rock in the Park! Pet Rock in the Park will be taking place this Sunday, August 28, 2016 from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM in Deer Oaks Park (Deering Ave, Portland, ME). Performing this year will be the Time Pilots, a 6-piece dance party band who cover everything from Frank Sinatra to Reggae; Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, dedicated to the great front women of the ’80s; and The Substitutes, Maine’s own vintage rock band of the ’60s and ’70s. In addition to the live music there will be animal demonstrations, food vendors, pet products and services, including our friends from No Bowl Empty Pet Food Pantry. There will also be approximately 20 different shelters and rescue organizations in attendance!
Hosted by Portland Veterinary Specialists and the Animal Emergency Clinic of Portland, the event is FREE, with proceeds to benefit Emma’s Foundation for Canine Cancer. Emma’s Foundation for Canine Cancer provides financial funding to pet owners who do not have the financial ability to pay for the canine cancer treatment of their beloved pet.
