Take Your Dog To The Ball Game – 2012

The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd … nothing says Spring like a baseball. And what could be better than sharing America’s favorite past-time with man’s best friend?

Known as “Bark in the Park” or “Dog Days,” major league ball parks across the nation are offering more dog friendly baseball games than ever before. This season your pup will be welcome to take in a game at 16 different stadiums … is anyone else thinking dog friendly road trip?!?

Not only are these events a lot of fun, a portion of the proceeds generally benefits local shelters or rescues. If your dog is ready to ruff, ruff, ruff  for the home team, check out the 2012 MLB schedule of dog friendly baseball games and get your tickets now!
