Pet owners and their furry friends had a delightful afternoon at the Madison Galeries 2nd Pet Costume Contest, which was held at the lifestyle mall’s Madison Events Place, the ideal place for weddings, baptisms, parties, and other gatherings. The event was a fun opportunity for dog lovers to dress up their fur babies in the most adorable outfits and costumes. Under the leadership of dynamic power couple Joel and Joy Rustia, Madison Galeries provides the community with exciting activities that are perfect for families, and this lovely, friendly competition was yet another one of those events.
Madison Galeries Mardi Gras bazaar is ongoing until Nov. 25 at the Madison Events Place.
