Reindog Parade

December 2 , 2006
11 a.m. – 3 p.m.

$14 per dog with advance registration through Nov. 26
$19 per dog on parade day
Free to member parade watchers

The Chicago Botanic Garden takes a bow (wow) for 2006 with the fourth annual Reindog Parade on Saturday, December 2. For four very special hours only, dogs are allowed in the Garden.

Cleverly costumed canines march the parade route — with Santa in the lead carrying a giant candy cane baton — to celebrate the holiday season.

Reindog festivities include registration from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and judging by celebrities from noon to 1 p.m. The parade steps off at 1:15 p.m., and judges award prizes beginning at 2:15 p.m.

Other activities include a visit and photo opportunity with Santa, and demonstrations by dog experts. The "Pup Tent" features holiday gifts and refreshments for pooches and people.

The Reindog Parade is the holiday season kickoff at the Garden. You may also visit the spectacular Wonderland Express exhibit, although dogs may not join you in the Regenstein Center.

Please note that this is the ONLY day all year that you can bring your dog to the Chicago Botanic Garden.
