Dallas Is Hosting A Giant Puptopia Festival This Spring & It's Like Coachella For Dogs
Everyone who owns a dog knows what it feels like to want to spoil them rotten. That adorable smile they give you when you buy them a new toy or treat makes the extra effort of having a pet totally worth it. Now you can spoil your dogs to the next extreme by taking them to an actual dog-themed festival in Dallas this spring!
You read that right. An exciting, day-long festival for dogs. The Puptopia Festival in Dallas is coming to the Main Street Garden Park this spring to entertain dogs across the city.
The fest will occur on Saturday, March 21, 2020, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The event will be completely dog-focused, with endless fun activities that are scientifically studied to make dogs happy. There's no other event like this is in the area, so we suggest you mark your calendars ASAP.
Though the fest is for dogs, the humans bringing the pups will have a blast too since there are tons of human-friendly things to do.
Along with being able to pet hundreds of other sweet pups throughout the day, humans can enjoy multiple dog-themed shows at the main stage, kick back at the K9 lounge or book a precious spa treatment with your puppy at their SPAW.
Some of the performances you will see at the fest include a dog stunt show with high jumping, dock diving, flying frisbees, racing, and other amazing agility tricks.
The K9 Lounge is a complete bar for both dogs and people to get a drink! There will also be endless booths and vendors with the latest and greatest dog items and treats.
Tickets are on sale now for only $25 a person (your dog's entry is included).
There is a list of rules that dogs must follow to be able to enjoy the fest, so be sure to have all the required shots and leashes when you arrive. You can check the requirements out here.
