🐶🪩🩶 Allow us to introduce you to Inga! Inga is one of the incredible dog sculptures from the talented Elizabeth Laul Healey that we have on display throughout the Gardens this summer.

🦴 Inga is a Positivity Watchdog, designed to spread good vibes and inspire connection. Her collar is set to “11:11,” which is a symbol of oneness, hope, and the power of intention.

🐕 The circular elements represent life’s continuous journey, with each piece reflecting the beauty of the world around us.

🕰️ She brings warmth, joy, and positive energy wherever she goes. Let’s embrace the good and manifest something meaningful together!

🩶 This pup enjoys zen moments in the Fern Grotto and manifesting positive guest experiences for all who visit the Gardens.
