Canine friends and their owners descended on Kona Commons for the fifth annual St. Pet-Tricks Day event on Saturday.
Dogs of all shapes and sizes competed in the pet kissing and pet trick contests and had their pictures taken. Pet training and grooming demonstrations were held as well.
On hand was Kaimi, the state’s only arson dog, who performed a demonstration with his handler, Hawaii Fire Department Battalion Chief Bobby Perreira.
Pet food donations were accepted and raffle prizes were awarded, including dog spa treatment for one year.
Donations benefited local animal organizations, Hawaii Island Humane Society, KARES and Advocats.
