Dog activities: agility course, lure course, costume contest, doggy/human look-alike contest, races, and more. Raffles galore where you can win prizes for your furry friend … and yourself! Booze raffles throughout the day. Photo Opps w/ and w/o your pupper friend! Rescues with adoptable pets so you can find your new best friend.
