Deirdre, right, a 1-year-old black lab mix, jumped straight into the water after being unhooked from her leash Saturday at the fifth-annual Easter egg hunt at Dogwood Park & Daycare. She passed by about 20 multicolored plastic eggs filled with dog treats without even realizing.

Doggy Easter egg hunt raises money for local pet rescue

Similarly to how they do it when their owners arrive home, more than 50 four-legged friends bolted through the gates of Dogwood Park on Saturday morning as soon as they were released from their leashes.

Luna, a soft-coated wheaten terrier, is trying to locate the treat hidden inside the plastic egg. She was one of more than 50 pups who attended the Easter egg hunt at Dogwood Park & Daycare Saturday.
