Rehoboth Beach is a great town to walk, jog and just sit on one of the many benches outlining the award-winning Boardwalk. During the summer months this Boardwalk is packed, but on The Second Season, it is a great place to relax and take in that salty ocean air.
Funland is close for the season, but Playland is open!!
Part of the fun whille on the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk is the “boardwalk grub”. Those foods that scream “ice cream”. These ladies were having so much fun and happy to pose, as welll.
At the water’s edge the fun continued.
And on the beach, some were walking their dogs (you can do that now) or beachcombing.
From the north side of the Boardwalk the WWII Towers were clearly seen.
Plenty of weddings take place on the beach….and yesterday, as the day started to wind down….the guests were patiently waiting.
I had to get back to my car….have a good one!!

It is now evening and as I sat down to write this post, I was thinking that it was really a nice Sunday. It started with an early breakfast in downtown Rehoboth Beach with a friend. Then, I went to see what was going on at The Pottery Place where Doggies at The Beach had organized a fun event to raise money for the Georgetown Shelter, Delaware SPCA.
I have mentioned Doggies at The Beach often. It is where I leave my, rescued dog, Addy, when I go away. I do so with total confidence that she will get the best care. This is a cage free facility with 24 hour human supervision. They are located at 18806 John J. Williams Highway (Rt. 24) in Rehoboth. Tel. 302-644-8200. Website? http://www.doggiesatthebeach.com.
Jim, who is the top dog at this facility had organized this event. It took place at The Pottery Place, located at 20717 Coastal Highway (Rt. 1). Tel. 302-227-1660. Their other location is in Fenwick Island at Fenwick Sunshine Plaza, 1500 Coastal Highway (Rt. 1). Tel. 302-539-3603. Website http://www.potteryplaceperks.com.
Another sponsor was BIN 66 Fine Wine & Spirits with 2 locations. One, next to The Pottery Place at 20729 Coastal Highway (Rt. 1). This is their Highway One Flagship Store. Tel. 302-227-6161. Their other location is in Downtown Rehoboth Beach at 301 Rehoboth Ave. at The Shops at The Pearl. Tel. 302-227-6966. Website? http://www.bin66.com.
And, free hotdogs, cooked on site were offered by Bethany Blues Lewes. Bethany Blues Lewes is located at 618285 Coastal Highway (between Lewes and Rehoboth Beach). Tel. 302-644-2500. Website? http://www.bethanyblues.com. Eric was cooking and the grilled hotdogs were perfect!!
The proceeds from this fun event were for the Georgetown Shelter, Delaware SPCA. It is located at 22918 Dupont Blvd., Georgetown, DE. Tel. 302-856-6361. Website? www.delspca.org. When you open the website it will show two locations in Delaware. Click on the Sussex County Shelter. You can see what dogs are available and their story online.
This shelter has been so great in promoting their dogs. You can also find them on Facebook at Georgetown Shelter, Delaware SPCA. They have tons of events to raise awareness and funds and to find their adoptable dogs their forever homes. The facebook page will give you updates and keep you informed as the dogs get adopted. They are doing an amazing job. The volunteers are caring and, definitely, animal lovers.
Today they had one cat at the event, but they have plenty at the shelter.
Their dogs were:
Fozzy, aka Fozzy Bear – I fell in love with him. He was so gentle and so funny. Very well behaved. If you want to check him out, and read his story, go on the website above mentioned and he is there as Fozz-35.
Valentino was so cute and full of energy. You will find him on the website as Valentino-102.
Beetle was very interested in my hotdog. He can be found at the website under Beetle-213.
That's Valentino with the Volunteer
Phineas & Ferb were found together and what a pair they were!! Obedient and amazingly calm. They will need to be adopted together. You can read more about them on the website as Phineas & Ferb.
People were mingling and having fun. Some brought their dogs and were having their pictures taken at the Party Booth.
This little dog was sitting in the lifeguarding chair posing like she did that every day.
Definitely, a diva…check her nails!! The perfect pedicure.
What surprised us the most was the arrival of Reggie, the potbelly pig. He came with its owner who had adopted Reggie from the Georgetown Shelter, Delaware SPCA. He was so sweet and so friendly!! He also is used to dogs since there are a few in his household.
What is left to say? Well, animals bring joy, peace, and serenity to its owners. It is proven that therapy dogs improve the lifes of the ones they touch. I look at Addy and she looks back with those eyes that say “thank you for giving me a chance”. If only she realized that she has given so much more in return.
Talk to you later…
