The 10th Annual Somerville Dog Festival is a community-wide event to celebrate dogs and the families who love them. The Somerville Foundation for Animals proudly hosts the festival, with 100% of the proceeds benefitting local animal-related charities. The primary recipient is the Somerville Pet Food Bank, which provides pet food for local food banks including the Greater Boston Food Bank and Project Soup in Somerville. Last year, we donated over 60,000lbs of pet food to support those in need in our community. “DogFest 2019” will incorporate lively entertainment and educational opportunities for dog owners. Planned activities include a wide variety of dog sports, working dogs including a police K9 unit, urban mushing and the popular Doggie Fun Zone. There will also be exciting contests such as Best Trick and Best Dressed! The event will take place from 11am to 3pm on Sunday, September 8, 2019 at Trum Field on Broadway in Somerville, MA.
The Somerville Foundation for Animals is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation dedicated to supporting local animal-related charities, particularly the Somerville Pet Food Bank. The foundation is entirely volunteer-driven, allowing 100% of the proceeds from the Somerville Dog Festival to help local animals in need.
