To ensure that this event is safe for everyone, your fur babies MUST be well-trained and vaccinated. Dogs behaving in an unruly or aggressive manner (i.e. excessive barking, growling, lunging, biting, etc.) will be required to leave without a refund.

For safety, there are a limited number of dog/canine tickets available and advanced registration for all dogs is REQUIRED by April 12. Dog tickets sell out fast- so get them before they're gone! 🐩
