SUMMARY:Blessing of the Pets and Remembrance Ceremony Returns to Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens

Pastor Nick Skinner will officiate. WBAL reporter Tommie Clark will serve as emcee. \n“We are pleased to be hosting the Pet Blessing ceremony this year after the hiatus brought on by the pandemic. The ceremony has always held a special place in our hearts as we recognize the powerful and genuine bond that exists between people and their pets. When we started our Pet Blessing event\, we found that many of the families who brought their pets to the ceremony also brought photos or mementoes of their beloved pets who had passed away so that their memory could be blessed as well. That began our tradition of extending the ceremony to honor and remember all pets\,” said Jack Mitchell\, President of Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens. \nFormat: \n\n·       Blessing of the pets ceremony officiated by Pastor Nick Skinner.\n·       Celebration of Life for pets who have passed will feature a bubble release.\n·       Tribute to Police K-9s who have passed away within the last two years.\n·       Demo by the Baltimore County Police K-9 Unit.\n·       A tree will be planted as a living memorial to all pets.\n·       The Crisis Response Canines will be honored.\n·       Refreshments and gift.\n·       In honor of Dulaney Valley’s 55th anniversary of providing pet services to the community\, attendees will have a chance to win a $55.00 gift certificate  to the pet store of their choice.\n\n·       Event is free and open to the public.
