Al-Sulaymaniyah has marked
International Dog Day with the Kurdistan Region’s first-ever festival to crown
the “most beautiful dog,” attracting hundreds of owners from across the
province.
On August 26, the world celebrates Dog Day, a reminder to protect and care for dogs everywhere.
Festival supervisor Negar Salah told
Shafaq News that the competition, which featured two categories—K9 security
dogs and domestic pets—was designed to raise awareness about animal welfare in
a festive atmosphere.
“This is the first festival of its
kind in al-Sulaymaniyah, and we hope it becomes an annual tradition,” she
added.
