Those interested in adopting a dog are encouraged to attend with the whole family, including any current dogs, to find their perfect pup. Many adorable, adoptable dogs will be onsite and ready for play in dedicated sections of Skydog Orange Dog Park.

Additional benefits of attending this event will include pet-friendly giveaways, free hot dogs, and most importantly, half-price adoption fees.
