DOGFEST 2009! October 10th
DogFest 2009 is fast approaching and we are expecting 5,000 – 7,000 people to attend this event with their dogs.
DogFest will once again take place at the same location as last year in Hunt Valley, Maryland at Shawan Downs. This event benefits the Baltimore Humane Society. (http://www.baltimorehumane.org/) This is our major fundraiser and community event that happens to be one of the largest animal related events in Maryland.
The event takes place on Saturday, October 10, 2009 (with a rain date of Sunday, October 11th).
The website for the event is http://www.dogfest2009.org. DogFest is an extravaganza for dogs and their families. We will have a fun-filled day of dog games, agility runs, dog contests, pet education and a tent pavilions that will have many dog rescue groups attending with their pets that are for adoption. We will even have a sandy beach and pools for the dogs to play in along with a puppy pumpkin patch where dogs get to pick their own pumpkins. Once again, we will have the “Best At The Fest” picture contest by Baltimore Dog Magazine to select a cover dog for their edition following DogFest.
This event also includes Equine Rescue groups that will be exhibiting horses that are for adoption along with horseback riding for kids and adults. We are also expanding our Cat Adoption pavilion and will be running our 5K-9 Fun Run again where pet owners get to run with their dog. Please join us!

Thank you for allowing postings of pit bull related events. They need positive press for sure. They are such a popular breed that many who own them should not own them..i.e. for the wrong reasons. Early in 20th century it was a popular breed as well, respected even.
