Don't Miss Canine Carnival This Weekend!

You won't want to miss the excitement this Sunday from 11-4 at Tilles Park in Ladue! The APA's Canine Carnival is bigger and better than ever this year!

Over 40 vendors will have goodies to peruse. An expanded kids' area includes a gigantic feline bounce house and facepainting, along with educational activities, too! There will be even more Carnival games for Fido to play, and even some for the two-legged festival goers as well!

In addition to games, you can enter your pet into one of celebrity-judged contests! Does your dog pucker up better than the rest? Enter her in the “Best Kisser” contest! Show us your dog’s amazing duds in the “Best Costume” contest. Does your pup have a face only a dog-mother could love? Find out in this year’s new “’Ugliest’ Dog” contest!

Food trucks from Zia's, 2 Girls 4 Wheels, and Destination Desserts will be on hand to feed the hungry masses, and, of course, there will be plenty of traditional carnival food, too! For the sports lovers, you can enjoy your meal while relaxing in the pavilion and watching the Rams play Jacksonville!

It's a day packed full of activities for everyone - make sure you're a part of this festive occasion!
