It’s the dog days of summer! Time to bring the pooch to Green Acres!

At all five locations, Green Acres Nursery & Supply celebrates August and our canine companions with its annual “Dog Days of Summer” garden party on Saturday, Aug. 10.

All shoppers who bring their dog to Green Acres get a 10 percent discount on annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees. They’ll also get a free commemorative doggy bandana, while supply lasts.

Experts will offer advice on pet-friendly landscaping as well as pet-safe plants and garden products.

Let your furry friend sniff through a special Scavenger Hunt and a chance to win a $50 Green Acres gift card.

Leading up to Saturday’s festivities, Green Acres is hosting a doggy photo contest online through Friday with different themes each day. Monday’s theme was “belly up” (time for belly rubs!); Tuesday’s is dog “planting” (do you have a digger?). Enter for a chance to win a $100 gift card.
