Are you always on the prowl for doggie events in and around Brisbane? Avid searchers like myself know that these sorts of events, the ones that cater specifically for dogs, are few and far in between - but no worries, because you've come to the right article!
Fitting.U Studio , an event planning organisation, has put together a
"Bow Wow Doggie Carnival" , to be held
next Sunday. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, dogs and puppies... mark the date in your diaries -
Sunday 30th April 2017. It's not a date you'll want to forget!
The Bow Wow Doggie Carnival will be held at Calamvale Dog Park, in both the off-leash dog area and the open grassy area next to it - pooches will, of course, need to remain on a leash outside of the designated off-leash area. All are welcome, whether you have a dog or not - plus, there's
free entry! The event has been organised as a charity fundraiser for
RSPCA Queensland , who as the majority of you will know is the state's oldest, largest and leading animal welfare charity, dedicated to improving the lives of all domestic, farmed and native animals throughout Queensland. 99% of their annual costs are funded by donations and community support - as such, by attending a fun event like this one, you'll be doing a huge part in ensuring that the great work they're doing is financially viable.
Seeing as it's free entry, you're probably wondering how the event will raise money for RSPCA. Similar to the EKKA, Bow Wow Doggie Carnival will be hosting a number of games, with fun prizes to be won - the only catch is that you'll need to purchase "game coins" in order to play the game(s) of your choice. If you want to utilise your competitive spirit (all in the name of good fun, of course!) and partake in these games, remember to
bring cash along so that you can purchase the coins. There are games for both owners and dogs to participate together as a team, in addition to games for just humans - because you don't need to have a dog to have fun at this event!
Team games (i.e. dogs and their humans) include:
1. "Crazy Race"
3 x 10 metres - run as quickly as you can while holding your dog!
Requires 3 dog-human partnerships to participate; feel free to make your own team
There will be a separate race for small and big dogs for fairness
2. Dress Up
Put on clothes for your dog as quickly as you can!
Clothing items may include shoes, glasses, fancy headwear etc.
3. Obstacle Course
Help guide your dog to aid them in successfully completing the obstacle course!
4. Sniff & Search
Guide your dog in a pool of toys to find the specified items
Once you've found the items, help your dog place it in the correct location!
5. Hug-Hug
Give Fido a big bear hug and complete a round of Hopscotch!
6. Mannequin Challenge
Choose from basic actions including sit, drop, shake, high five
Or perhaps more complex tasks, such as putting food somewhere on your dog's body and making them hold still for 5 seconds!
One photo is required per action chosen.
If you don't have a dog, but are coming along anyway for lots of free doggie pats, don't worry about missing out on these fun games - because Bow Wow Doggie Carnival also have games just for the humans. lucky us!
1. Ring Toss
Each bottle will have a picture of a different breed of dog on it
State the breed of the dog correctly, and toss the ring onto that bottle to win!
2. Balloon Boom
Use different parts of your body to burst the balloon - while answering questions as part of a team!
3. Fast & Furious
Pie Face - need I say anymore?
**Come along next Sunday for a great day of fun to be had by all,
dogs and humans alike - and all for a good cause too!**
