Thanks goes to India Lipton for the following contribution:

Ever wondered what Marmaduke, Scooby Doo, and other Great Danes would be like in person? Now you can find out at 10AM on the Second Sunday of every month (weather permitting). RuffHouse Dog Park in Rockwood Park and the Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League are hosting Dane Day at the Park! Come learn about the breed and play with some Danes.

Riding on the wave of Marmaduke fans I was inspired to create a monthly event where people can meet with Great Danes. Ruff House Dog Park and the Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League (MAGDRL) are hosting Dane Day at the Park in hopes of introducing people to the breed and the newly improved dog park.

Hopefully this will give people an opportunity to see what Great Danes are like in person as well as give other Dane owners a chance to play and share stories about their “Gentle Giants’. MAGDRL will be there with information on available Danes and of course I will be there with Carlton our 10 month old blue Great Dane puppy. Who knows, you may just fall in love with these regal yet goofy creatures!

We welcome members of the media, press and local photographers.
