Retro Paw Wow is a dog-friendly festival that will take place Sunday, June 9, at North Hollywood Park from 10am to 4pm, in the NoHo Arts District. We invite friends and families to come and enjoy a day of activities with their pets. The event is designed for animal lovers, and invites the participation of rescue groups, pets and their owners, children, trainers, sponsors, and vendors.
Hosted by comedians Annette Harper and Jason Love, the festival will feature a full day of fun activities. There will be celebrity guests James Avery ("Uncle Phil" from Fresh Prince of Bel Air) and his dog Baron, "Marilyn Monroe", a moviestar dog presentation by Buster Cornbread, a dog training workshop, a pet fashion show, chair massage, pet massage, a pet psychic, pet adoptions, vaccinations and micro-chipping, face painting, children's activities, a dance performance by Tanda Neelam Tribal Collective, as well as contests and prizes. The mission of the event is to educate the public about animals and their amazing capacity to be loyal companions for us humans, and help abused and homeless animals find loving homes. We are hoping to get news coverage for this event.
The proceeds from the event will go to support the East Valley Animal Shelter's STAR program, as well as provide immediately needed items such as industrial fans, heating pads, and air purifiers for the shelter. The event will also promote local rescue organizations: A New Leash on Life, Southern California Golden Retriever Rescue, and Muttshack Rescue. Encino Veterinary Clinic and SNPLA will be distributing spay and neuter information and offering vaccinations. Local businesses are invited to participate as vendors as we unite the community to support rescue projects in a fun and festive way.
We look forward to seeing you (and your dog) there! Dog-Friendly Festival ...Proceeds will go to support East Valley Animal Shelter Clcik here for Schedule
