Dogapawlooza event is scheduled for September 19
The 8th annual Dogapawlooza will be held Saturday, September 19 at the Cowlitz County Fairgrounds in Longview. Dogapawlooza is a benefit for the Humane Society of Cowlitz County.
Dogapawlooza 2015 will be the biggest dog party you’ve ever seen. Whether you bring your dog or don’t. Whether you enter your dog in anything or don’t. It’s just too much fun to miss!
Attendance and parking are free. There is a $5 fee to enter the Wiener Dog Races.
Check out the costume contest and fashion show.
Lure Coursing has been a big hit.
Sometimes a dozen dogs line up waiting for their turn. Watch dogs blaze around a course trying to catch a simple plastic bag tied to a rope on a motorized pulley. The lure machine can run at different speeds to fit whatever kind of dog is racing. It’s $3 for one run, or $5 for two.
Any donations to the Humane Society of Cowlitz County are encouraged and more than welcome. The RelyLocal Trolley will be there, and they are having a “Fill the Trolley” drive for food, toys, blankets, towels, or anything else for the Humane Society. Vendor booths are still available. A 10’ x 10’ space costs $50.
Some of the other activities at Dogapalooza will include Silly Dog Contests: (like longest tail, shortest ears, best trick, best kisser). Peanut Butter Eating Contest: Which dog can slurp it down the fastest? Ball Fiend: Laugh at a group of dogs chasing a group of balls. Musical Chairs: When the music stops, the last dog to sit is eliminated.
Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Testing: How well behaved is the dog? Low Rider Races (bulldogs, bassets and corgis): Who’s the fastest low rider?
Tiny Titans Races: Who’s the champion of the under 20# weight class? Wiener Dog Races: It’s crazy! It’s chaotic! It’s a barrel of laughs!
