Mutt Strut
Touted as the must-do fall festival for dogs and their people, Mutt Strut is a pet-acular annual event that always draws a crowd.

The scenic strut route in the Navy Yard promises a relaxing stroll, while there’s plenty more to have you and your dog licking your respective lips. Highlights include an agility course, food trucks, costume and talent contests, and live music, so get out there and start strutting!

DogFest Walk 'n Roll
Held annually in Philly and a number of other locations around the country, DogFest Walk ‘n Roll promises a tail-waggin’ good time for you and your pet. This dog- and family-friendly event raises funds for Canine Companions for Independence, a non-profit that trains assistance dogs for people with disabilities. The focus is on fun as you and your four-legged friend tackle the easy one-mile course, and you can then cool down by enjoying a grrr-eat family festival into the afternoon.

Mums and Mutts Fall Festival and Family Fun Day
Mums and Mutts is a great little organization with a mission to raise funds and awareness for animals in need. Each October, it holds this fabulously fun and furry fundraiser at Burke Playground to benefit local animal rescues. That’s a good enough reason to attend right there, but if you need more convincing, maybe you’d be interested in the ridiculously cute doggie costume contest, or the great prizes on offer through a range of games and giveaways. And there’s plenty more for you and your pet to see and do, with live music, an awesome kids’ zone, a blessing of the animals, and more than 15 local rescues and shelters with adoptable pets. Oh, and plenty of food and drinks to keep the whole family (including your leashed doggo) happy!
