🐾📅 Dogs of the Hyak Calendar! 📅🐾

Available exclusively at the Poulsbo Maritime Museum for just $15!

The Dogs of the Hyak Calendar is a fun community project that brought together local residents and their beloved dogs for a one-of-a-kind calendar celebrating Poulsbo's furry friends. Each photo was taken using the museum's Hyak Pilot House replica as the backdrop, creating a unique maritime twist on a classic dog calendar.

A special thank you to all of the dog owners who participated and helped make this project possible!

Stop by the museum to pick up your copy today. They make great gifts for dog lovers, friends, and family, while supporting local history and the museum!
