The 3rd annual Chico Canine Carnival is sure to be a tail-wagging success! Last year, more than 300 dogs and their people enjoyed a fun-filled day of pet friendly activities, education, and community spirit. As always attendees will have the opportunity to visit a variety of booths featuring dog related products and businesses, rescue organizations, with lots of yummy people food and doggie treat choices! All proceeds generated by this event goes toward the spaying and neutering of our community's homeless animals.
