Most dogs love to take rides, and this bulldog is no exception. After the parade the giant, furry pup could be found at the Ada Dog Park Association booth, one of the busiest booths on the street on Saturday. Many fairgoers donated to the future park, indicating great interest in having a park for puppies. The dog park is slated to be open next summer on East Lehr Avenue. (Monty Siekerman)
