Snapshots from the 22nd Annual Reindog Parade
Not too long ago, Holly Hounds, Dashing Dachshunds, Bugle Blowing Bulldogs and Glistening German Shepherds were strutting their stuff through the streets of Mt. Adams.
Voted the “Best Family Event” in Cincinnati, this unique event takes place every December - this year it was on December 8, 2012. The 2 p.m. procession through the streets of Mt. Adams was led by Santa himself. This year's categories were small dogs (under 25 lbs), large dogs (over 25 lbs) dog/owner look-a-like and group entries (2 or more dogs). The parade concluded with a short program, prizes, fun, and food.

Harold Dates, President & CEO of SPCA Cincinnati presents Pat Sheppard and Sandy Zimmerman of the Mt. Adams Business Guild with a plaque, thanking them for their 22 years of service to the Reindog Parade. View more photos from the parade with this short slideshow below.

We want to spread our mission!
Part of spca cincinnati’s goal is spreading the word. The more our community is educated, the more soldiers we have to fight for our furry friends. To do this, we offer group classes explaining our services and how you can help.
