Woofstock TorontoWoofstock Toronto 2013 celebrated its 10th annual canine love-fest in the St. Lawrence Market neighbourhood over the weekend. If you were a dog owner or dog lover this was the place to be. Front, Wellington and Church Streets were taken over for two full days by dogs in all shapes, sizes and matter of dress with most more than willing to pose in between drools, scratches and sniffs for a photo op.

We've created a stream with some of our photos from Woofstock 2013. And your photos by tagging them woofstockTO in Instagram or by adding them to the Stream via this upload form.

20 photos of Ke$ha & Pitbull bringing the sex to Toronto

Posted by Staff / June 7, 2013

Kesha Pitbull TorontoWednesday night at the Molson Amphitheatre was a glittering tribute to sex, love, and peace on earth: American rapper Pitbull was joined by the reigning Gonzo of pop, singer, song writer, and reality star Ke$ha. Though a quarter of the crowd were between the ages of say, eight and 16, penis costumes, sexual innuendo and not-even-innuendo were as abundant as glitter and booty shorts. It was an outrageous party in the most choreographed of ways.

Check out this slideshow for a visual recap of the event.
