Telluride is one place where going to the dogs is a good thing. (Young Russian directors in town for the Telluride Film Festival remarked in their interview about “dog heaven,” saying pets here look like their people.) Second Chance Humane Society rescues hundreds of homeless pets each year, many of which have become beloved Telluride pets.

To show their deep appreciation to the residents of Ouray and San Miguel counties for 15 years of undying support, Second Chance is throwing a party – actually two parties. The first big event is in Telluride, Saturday, September 26, in Elks Park. The second hoorah is Sunday, September 27, in Ridgway’s Town Park, home to Second Chance’s shelter. Both celebrations take place 3 – 5 p.m.

In addition to live music and giveaways, show up and get 1/2 price micro-chipping for your pet (only $25) and enjoy a wide array of “chip” treats: chocolate chip cookies and ice cream, chip cake, chips and dip and more. Doggie dna test kits are also available.
