During one of the first warm days of spring this Saturday, Valley Stream’s dogs, along with their owners, had a playful time at the village dog run — chasing, chewing, slobbering, smelling and, of course, running. Breeds large and small hung out with their fellow furry friends as they enjoyed some sun and fresh air, with many more warm days in the year ahead.
