Pooch pool party a big splash at Mon Valley YMCA
On Wednesday, the Mon Valley YMCA, in partnership with Mon Valley Paws, hosted a “Doggie Paddle” at the Carroll Township facility. From the looks of it, humans and hounds alike enjoyed cooling off as the heat and humidity continues to soar in the Mon Valley this week.
