Upcoming Events to Support Pets & Pet Parents in Crisis
Pup Festival at Tempe Marketplace🐾🎉
January 17, 2025 // 10am-2pm // Tempe Marketplace
Calling all dog lovers! Join us on January 17 at Tempe Marketplace. We’re teaming up with Pup Festival to host the ultimate Dog Pawty, a fun-filled, family-friendly event created just for dogs and their people, all while benefiting local animal rescues.
Throughout the day, pups can race, play, and show off their skills with dog races, an agility course from Zoom Room Ahwatukee, a Swift Paws lure course, an all-dogs park, and a mobile dog gym by RunBuddy. There will also be training talks from MazTalks Calviri, professional photo opportunities, pawdicures, a dog fashion show by Designer Hoarder Pups, and plenty of treats including a bone bar and pup cups.
Looking to add a new furry family member? Lost Our Home will be on-site with some of our adoptable pups (we won’t have adoptions on site, but you can say hi and apply in person or online!) You can also enjoy vendors (pet and non-pet), prizes, giveaways, a mobile bar hosted by Tempe Marketplace.
