It’s rare to see the bride and groom wandering around during their wedding ceremony.

But Bear and Izzy did anything but stay still while they tied the leash.

Nancy Nanes, an elder of the United Church of Christ, presided over their Saturday evening ceremony before about 50 guests at The Learning Dog Training and Enrichment Center, 751 N. Main St..

“I think it’s wonderful when we can come together to celebrate love,” Nanes said. “Especially puppy love.”

Bear, a 9-year-old Husky mix, and Izzy, a 5-year-old Shepherd mix, exchanged dog tags instead of rings before being pronounced “forever fur mates” by Nanes.

The canine couple also dressed up for the special occasion. Bear wore a bow tie and Izzy’s collar was decorated with lace and jewelry.
