Welcome to PawsFest, a premier celebration of the bond between pets and their families!

PawsFest brings together pet owners and their furry companions, pet services & suppliers, and pet-friendly local businesses for a day of joy, learning, and community bonding. Our mission is to create an enriching experience that promotes responsible pet ownership, supports local businesses, and enhances the well-being of our beloved animal friends.

🌟 Friendly Paws Society 🌟

PawsFest has been created by the Friendly Paws Society in collaboration with the creator of the Pet Lover Show at Tradex and the PNE.  PawsFest directly funds the Friendly Paws Society, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to uplifting at-risk youth through helping animals in need. With programs like Pawsitive Futures, the Friendly Paws Society helps at-risk youth stay away from the streets, gang life, addictions, and crime by providing them with a sense of purpose and self-worth through working with animals. Join us in supporting this incredible mission to make a positive impact on the lives of both youth and animals.
