A pet-friendly “Pet-a-Palooza” event this Saturday is promising “nonstop action for you and your dog,” with obstacle courses, doggy treats, a “splash” area, and a K-9 demonstration by the Citrus Heights Police Department.
The event will also have on-site food and a beer garden, along with vendor areas for local pet stores, veterinarians, and rescue groups. Cats and dogs will also be available for adoption.
Pet-a-Palooza promises to be kid-friendly as well, with a special area for inflatable jump houses, slides, face painting and a rock wall – ensuring fun for the whole family.
Live music will be performed by Gavin DeGraw, Ryan Star, and the American pop rock band, Parachute. VIP tickets are available, which include a “meet and mingle” with Ryan Star.
Organizers are reminding pet owners to have current licenses and vaccinations, and will be requiring leashes for all pets.
