A Doggone Good Time At Parading Paws

Vista Life Innovations was proud to sponsor the 7th annual Parading Paws Dog Show at the Florence Griswold Museum on July 30 as part of the Old Lyme Midsummer Festival.

More than 20 dogs participated in this year's show, and every contestant walked away a winner. From Biggest Paws to Best Smile and everything in between, ribbons were awarded to each dog based on their most distinguished characteristics. Special prizes were awarded for Best Costume and Best Trick.

Joining Vista students and staff on the judges' panel were Old Lyme First Selectwoman Bonnie Reemsnyder and local resident Kari Robinson.

This year's event also featured agility and scent demonstrations led by Kara Staroski, owner of Groomingtails Pet Spa in Guilford, and her four Beauceron dogs.
