Locals celebrate their love of dogs

More than 100 locals gathered over the weekend to bond over their love of dogs.

Residents from Stockland Edgebrook, Stockland Minta, and Stockland Evergreen came together at Ashtead Street Dog Park to share a fun day with their neighbours and “best friends”.

The free event, held on Saturday 4 March, treated people and pooches alike to coffee and pastries, a Smooch-Your-Pooch Booth, a professional dog trainer and more.

Pups and their humans were treated to lots of running around, a photo booth, music, dress-ups, an agility course and of course treats and puppuccinos, of both the dog and human variety.

Residents delighted in the doggy treat bar and the best dressed doggy competition with Stockland local Rebecca Bortolus praising the event.

“Dogs are just as much part of the family as children are these days, and it was great to have an event that included them in the fun,” she said.

“We had a great time watching our girls make new doggy friends, eat treats and run the agility course.

“Yet another fantastic Stockland event in our community.”

Stockland project director Kerry Balci said Stockland’s events and initiatives help people to connect and fast-track that community feel.

“Our customers look for communities that are welcoming and inclusive,” she said.

“We want to make sure our residents living in every Stockland community are living their best life, which is why we don’t just talk about liveability, we measure it.

“It’s how we know our residents love where they live – and how we find ways to keep improving the lifestyle experience in our communities.”
