North Aurora, Ill. — On Saturday, July 19, the Village of North Aurora will host its first Dog Days of Summer event at North Aurora Riverfront Park. From 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., pet owners can celebrate their pets or adopt a new pet to take home.
To celebrate the Dog Days of Summer event, the Village of North Aurora will host a pet parade and contests for pets with prizes.
