Today: The Real Dog Day of August

What's up in East Brunswick on Monday.

Today is the perfect day to celebrate our furry four-legged friends with National Dog Day.

The appropriate time to honor canines during the dog days of August began as a way to both recognize the pets for all they do and to rescue dogs from homelessness and abuse. President George W. Bush sent a letter to the National Dog Day Foundation in support of National Dog Day during his presidency. Tell us what you're doing to celebrate your dog as we check what else is going on around town today.
