Photos: Dog parade takes over Steveston boardwalk

Pooches showed off their best Christmas costumes.

Almost 100 dogs and their owners were spotted along the Steveston boardwalk for the first-ever Steveston holiday dog parade on Sunday morning.

Four-legged furry family members donned their best Christmas costumes such as Santa suits, reindeer antlers and even Christmas tree dresses.

Owners and pets started the parade from Phoenix Pond Bridge, at Imperial Landing Park, around 11 a.m. and ended at the Starbucks on Bayview Street and No. 1 Road.

Many onlookers snapped photos as the dog parade marched through Imperial Landing. Some families had a smooth walk, while others got caught in a tangle of excited pooches.

Pet owners also brought their pets to the Gulf of Georgia Cannery for photos with Santa after the parade ended.
