FRANKLIN, WI — Dog owners and baseball fans, especially fans of both, rejoice. Next week is Franklin Field's "Bark at the Park" day. Dogs of all types are welcome to join the Milwaukee Milkmen and fans for their Aug. 10 game against the Lincoln Saltdogs.

A special dog ticket for $5 will secure pups and their parents treats, the chance to meet Milkmen Mascot "Bo Vine," a selection between a toy or a stuffed animal and more, Megan Hilbelink, a media representative for Roc Ventures, told Patch.

In between innings the game's hosts will do some games as well, Hilbelink said. The upcoming Bark in the Park is the second so far this season, and the most recent of many over the years, according to Hilbelink.
