Lots of barking at the ball park tonight.
Take your best friend out to the ballgame! The Florida Marlins are having their annual Bark at the Park tonight, Friday. The game against the San Diego Padres begins at 7:10 pm -- night games are improvement over the Marlin's original Dog Day Afternoon, which broiled pooches and two-legged fans alike in the sun.

The event is held in conjunction with the Humane Society of Greater Miami/Adopt-A-Pet and the Humane Society of Broward County. There will be professional pet photographers and other "dog friendly" activities.
Tickets are $12 for humans, $6 for kids and dogs. That should leave you enough money for -- what else? -- some hot dogs.

And check back with Sit, Stay, Speak! tomorrow. We are going to post some photos from the game, and we aren't talking about pictures of the players.
