This Sunday is the last day for the town pool to be open this summer and Waterbury Recreation will give local canines a chance to cool off with their people nearby.

Doggy Day will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and well-behaved dogs are invited to head to the pool for a swim and some fun with other dogs. Owners must have voice control over their pets, a leash on hand and be ready to clean up after their pooch. The pool will be closed to human swimmers for the event. "This is the one time of the year where the pool is closed to humans and open to dogs!" the announcement explains.
