The highlight of the event? A thrilling doggy Easter Egg hunt that will have tails wagging with excitement! Watch as your pup sniffs out treats hidden throughout the park, providing an entertaining challenge that’s sure to delight dogs of all sizes and breeds.

Paws in the Park also features an Easter “best dressed” contest, where stylish pups can strut their stuff in their most adorable springtime attire. From bunny ears to floral collars, let your pup’s personality shine as they compete for the title of best-dressed Easter pooch.

After the festivities, enjoy some free playtime in the dog park, allowing your furry friend to mingle, romp, and socialize with other dogs in a safe and supervised environment. It’s the perfect opportunity for dogs to burn off energy, make new friends, and revel in the joys of outdoor exploration.
