Get ready for a Howl-o-ween celebration you won’t soon forget as Animal Friends’ Mutt Strut becomes the Muttster Mash!

We’ll count on your pooch for the tricks and we’ll provide some hauntingly good treats in our vendor village and food truck alley! Enjoy plenty of spooky activities for the mutts like bobbing for hot dogs and the pumpkin roll, and stick around as we present awards for the best costumes and 5k winners!

Lace up your sneakers, leash up your pup and break out your best costume because there will be something for everyone. This ghoulish event will feature a 1-mile “Harvest Hike for Hounds,” frightening 5k run and, of course, the “Too Cute to Spook Pup Parade.”

Register for the Mash, for the Muttster Mash – doggone it’ll be a boneyard smash! More information on page 11.
