Next Sunday, April 21st, Bergamo will host the tenth edition of Corri Dog, together with the nineteenth National Guide Dog Day, organized by the Italian Union of the Blind and Visually Impaired, territorial section of Bergamo, in collaboration with the Pro Loco of Bergamo.
The city will welcome dogs accompanied by their owners, on a suggestive route through the streets of the centre: it will be an excellent opportunity to indulge in a walk in the open air, in the company of many four-legged friends. At the start, set in Piazza Dante, an expo area dedicated to the canine universe will be set up.
