The Spring Festival Celebrates the Dogs of Dubai

This year’s Spring Festival is unleashing fun for you and your pup. This Saturday, March 9th, bring your furry friends down to Al Habtoor Resort for a celebration of man’s best friend. 

Sponsored by the popular dog food brand Purina, this bonafide hound bonanza features a packed schedule of events that will keep the tails wagging all day long. If you have the goodest dog, this festival gives you plenty of opportunities to prove it. 

Open to all participants, The Spring Dog Show has 10 themed events that give dogs of every disposition a chance to shine. Highlights from the day’s itinerary include the Waggiest Tail Competition, Musical Sits, and the Best Easter Bonnet event. With prizes, bragging rights, and adorableness abound, this dog show is the perfect way to show off. Is your dog more athletic than aesthetic?  More competitively inclined canines have the opportunity to try their paw at hay bale racing. 

However your pupper does in the competitions, we all know they’re always a winner who deserves a treat! This festival’s shopping opportunities give you the chance to spoil your furry friend with a huge selection of dog supplies, treats and accessories. And if you’ve been a good human, maybe give yourself a little treat – this shopping experience has homemade goods and tasty snacks made for you as well. For even more fun, check out this event’s  bouncy castles, ball pits, bubbles, and face painting – attractions that make the Spring Festival as much fun for your two-legged kids as it is for your fur babies. 

Registration for dog show events opens at 11 AM until 9 PM, with an entry fee of AED 40 per event.
