Smokey had a great time with Sabrina! He almost didn t want to go home. She stayed on top of keeping me in the loop with his boarding, and the pictures she took were awesome! I d definitely board or select any of her other services for Smokey again.

The best dog events in Roanoke

Woofstock
Each spring at Dr Pepper Park, Dodson Pest Control puts on a huge event for all things dog. It's called Woofstock! People and their pooches come from far and wide to enjoy a number of live bands while they shop the local products for both person and pet. There are even animal agility expos to check out. With so much to do and so little time, guests should remember to grab something tasty from one of the many food vendors to stay energized. Woofstock brings the spirit of Woodstock - community, music, and good energy - to the Roanoke Valley for folks and mutts of all ages. Tickets are only $5, and the first 200 hundred people to arrive receive a bag of freebies!36
Black Dog Salvage
Everyone loves a good treasure hunt! If you’re one to appreciate a timeless antique Coca-Cola sign or a vintage gramophone, you will have died and gone to doggone heaven at Black Dog Salvage. You might have seen Black Dog Salvage on one of their eight seasons of the DIY Network show, “Salvage Dogs.” As long as your dog is friendly with the resident black lab, they are welcome to come on in! And when you bring a dog food donation to Black Dog for Roanoke SPCA, you will get 10% off of your purchase.24
Go Outside Festival
The Go Outside Festival, hosted by Anthem Blue Cross is without a doubt the event of the year in Roanoke Valley! This free weekend-long festival has an expansive schedule for you and your four-legged friend to enjoy. The outdoorsman's dream, there are vendors and expos for paddlers, BMX cyclists, climbers, and slackliners amongst many others. For those of us who are less inclined to extreme outdoor sports, there are craft beer tents, a silent disco, and lumberjack Olympics. Go Outside Fest is an excellent opportunity to find a new hobby, and see what the vibrant Roanoke Outdoor community has to offer!

Horse & Hound Wine Festival
Hosted by Peaks of Otter Winery and Johnson Orchards, the Horse and Hound Festival is a dog-friendly summer festival for a cause.

Situated with the stunning Blue Ridge Mountain range in the background, Horse and Hound hosts a number of local wineries for sample along with live music, food vendors, and a children’s section. This festival is known for its quirky spectator events like the muskrat race and the horse parade. You and your doggo won’t want to miss it!
