Pooches take the plunge

Staff writers

September 2, 2012 — Summer is coming to an end, but there's still time for one final dip in the pool.

Dogs of all shapes and sizes celebrated the unofficial end of summer today by taking a dip in the pool.

The event, now in its sixth year, is called the Pooch Plunge -- and the Labour Day weekend fundraiser was designed with man's best friend in mind.

The dogs were set loose in a public swimming pool in London, Ontario, after their owners paid a $6.00 entry fee.

A huge crowd turned out to take part -- and the weather was in full cooperation, with sunny skies and temperatures in the mid-twenties.
