Malden Police hold Doggies’ Ice Cream Treats event in honor of Dog Appreciation Day

Special to The Advocate

In honor of Dog Appreciation Day, the Malden Police Department sponsored an Ice Cream Treat Event at Fellsmere Pond. Free Doggies’ Ice Cream Treats were handed out to Malden’s furry friends as they enjoyed a tail-wagging good time with each other and their owners. Specially crafted, dog-safe ice cream in a variety of flavors was served, and all the pups seemed satisfied with the event. Animal Control Officer Kevin Alkins was assisted by Mayor Gary Christenson in handing out the treats. City Councillors Amanda Linehan, Peg Crowe, Craig Spadafora and Ari Taylor along with Forestdale School Principal Adam Weldai brought their pooches to enjoy the day with members of the community.
