Attendees will also have the opportunity to purchase Humane Pennsylvania merchandise and participate in raffle drawings for additional prizes. The event welcomes well-behaved dogs on leashes, and to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all, dogs will be grouped by size for 30-minute time slots, with each group comprising 10 dogs.
