Seabrook Dogs Strut Their Stuff at Pet Expo

On October 9, more than a dozen dogs strutted their stuff at Seabrook Retirement Community’s Dog Show and Pet Expo. The dogs, escorted by their resident and staff owners, received cheers and applause from the audience as they paraded through the community’s Town Square Activity Room. Some of the breeds represented included St. Bernard, Beagle, Pug, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Labradoodle, and Bull dog.

Rosemary Cheek and her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Mazie Grace, both dressed in pumpkin costumes, won the pet/owner look-a-like award. Judy Sullivan’s dog Delilah, a Pomeranian and Chihuahua mix, won the award for best costume.

The pet-friendly event also included a pet blessing by Seabrook Pastoral Ministries Manager David Bowman, local vendors, live caricature drawings of pet and owner, and a collection drive for the Associated Humane Society of Tinton Falls.

Seabrook is a pet-friendly community featuring a dog park, pet club, walking paths and pet-friendly activities like the annual Pet Expo and Dog Show. The scenic 98-acre campus is located in Tinton Falls, New Jersey and is home to more than 1,400 residents.
