Water parks in Deerfield and Hollywood that are typically for kids and families are open specifically for dogs at designated K9 Water Festivals, popular with pooches and their people.
Some dogs step into the shallow water and stand. Others fly into the water, swim and retrieve floating toys. Either way, dogs and their families adore it.
Fees for dogs are $5 per 50-minute increment in the water park. Weekend park entry fees for people age 6 and older is $1.50.
