Lace up your sneakers, leash up your dog, and get ready to join forces with heaps of other animal lovers to raise money for the Houston SPCA. iWalk for Animals, held at Memorial Park on the Picnic Loop, features two enjoyable options — a 5K Canine Caper and a 1K Mutt Strut. You can walk or run by yourself or as a team, and well-behaved dogs are welcomed with open paws. There’s plenty more to see and do around the walk as well, with doggy demonstrations, live music, and products from a variety of vendors. However, the most fun is usually had at the variety of pet-friendly contests, so why not see whether your pooch could take home the title of Best Costume, Pet/Owner Lookalike, or even Best Kisser?

If you love dogs and want to raise money for an extraordinary animal rescue group, it’s time to strut your mutt!

It’s a laid-back, relaxed, and social way to get some exercise with your furry friend, while there are always heaps of great vendors on hand if you and your pet feel like a little retail therapy.

Howl-O-Ween Fest
Why should Halloween be limited to just a few hours of trick-or-treating? Why not enjoy a whole day of spooky fun with your furry friend by your side at this paw-some annual festival? Howl-O-Ween Fest, which attracts several-thousand dog lovers to the northwestern suburb of Bridgeland each year, allows you to do exactly that. The centrepiece of the event is the entertainment on the main stage, which includes a host of demonstrations and performances from some truly talented canines. Other highlights include the super-cute doggie fashion show, pumpkin decorating, a farmers’ market, and trick or treating, so make sure to bring the whole family along!

April Showers Dog Wash and Family Fun Day
Is your pooch getting a bit on the nose? Let someone else do the hard work of washing him at this woof-tastic family event, which also raises money for a good cause. Held by Friends of the Phoenix, a non-profit with a mission to give back to the greater Houston area, the April Showers Dog Wash features a dog washing station so you can get your pooch looking, feeling, and smelling like a million bucks! There’s plenty more fun to be had on the day, with pet-friendly vendors, free pet nail clippings, a silent auction, and beer and food specials, so it’s well worth going along — even if your pet isn’t all that fond of baths!
