Dallas Zoo hosts first-ever ‘Dog Day’

DALLAS (CBS, KYMA) - The Dallas Zoo said its first-ever Dog Day, held Friday, was a “"tail-wagging success," posting footage of the four-legged patrons exploring the zoo.

According to the Dallas Zoo, nearly 200 dogs, and their human companions, had entered the zoo by noon Friday, a day of "beautiful, mild weather."

Footage shows a number of the canine visitors Friday.

"Dogs showed curious, engaged behavior throughout the experience, especially when observing zoo animals visible behind glass, including penguins, lions, and elephants," the Dallas Zoo said in a press release. "Many pups paused to watch, sniff, and take in the sights, creating memorable moments for guests and staff alike."
