Join an estimated 25,000 people and 6,000 dogs for Canada’s most unique and dog-friendly festival experience. It only happens once per year – on International Homeless Animals’ Day! There isn’t a better place to spoil your dog!
Take your dog dock diving, go swimming in the Pawlooza pond, test your dog’s agility, run the lure course, go offleash in the FunZone, get trick advice, get obedience advice, watch agility demonstrations, visit our VIP lounge… shop from 175 vendors, get great deals by bidding on silent auction items, and load up on free samples. We’ve packed as much fun into one day as possible… there isn’t a better place to spoil your dog!
Admission is $10 per vehicle, parking included, and all for charity. So, be sure to car pool and pack as many people and dogs into your car as you can! It only happens once a year…
Pawlooza is a 100% volunteer-driven festival. Thousands of hours are put into the festival by the Organizing Committee and 300 volunteers. All are working on behalf of two local non-profits, ARF Ontario – working with First Nations and rural communities throughout Ontario to rescue, rehab and re-home stray dogs and cats, and LEADS Employment Services – helping people with disabilities throughout Southwestern Ontario find employment and receive skills training.
