Area canines and their owners cooled off Saturday afternoon at the West Burlington Public Pool, closing the summer season with a beloved tradition.
The annual Doggy Paddle, organized in conjunction with the Des Moines County Humane Society, didn’t give absolute reign to man’s best friend. Their owners were there too, often swimming beside the happy hounds.
Money raised at the annual event will help operate the Des Moines County Humane Society’s animal shelter in Burlington.
