Show off your Celtic breed at The Maine Celtic Celebration! All Celtic dogs and their owners are invited to join Steve Seekins, Faelan the Deerhound, and Maggie the Lurcher at 9:30 for a parade of the grounds led by a kilted piper followed at 10:00 by a “Meet the Celtic Breeds” dog show on the Steamboat Stage. Dog owners will do a short informal talk about their breed. Talks will include some information on the breed’s history and characteristics, their purpose and other interesting facts, along with any human interest stories about a specific dog.
