About this Event
San Diego's most charitable, pet-friendly Pet and Military Appreciation event of the year (and voted as one of San Diego's Favorite Events 2020), "Unleash the Holiday Cheer" is BACK!
As always, with the grant from our presenting sponsor, Traci's Paws will sponsor over 1,000 FREE presents for our military and veterans and their families!
THIS YEAR, we are introducing a NEW SPONSORSHIP! Instead of adoption fees, we will sponsor VET CARE for our military/veteran families! We understand the financial strain near the holidays and want to help keep these pets in their homes.
Plus, we're offering professional Santa photos for you, your kids, pets, AND gifts from Santa FOR ALL WHO ATTEND! Don't miss our Holiday Vendor Village for Holiday Shopping with Military discounts, Entertainment, Friendship Bracelet Designing Station, and Fun Take-Home craft activities for Kids and adults, MORE!
12:30 PM - 1:30 PM Pet Parade AND Pet Costume Contest with Prizes!
Gifts for Military and Veterans and each dependent with ID in attendance!
MORE TO BE ANNOUNCED!
ALL FRIENDLY PETS ARE WELCOME!
For everyone's safety and to have the best time, please see the following:
- If pets get unruly and aggressive, we will ask you to leave
- Must clean up after your pets
- No retractable leashes, you can borrow a standard leash at our Welcome Booth.
Since the event's inception in 2016, we have raised $600k for over 1,000 military/veterans and their families with gifts and sponsored adoption fees for homeless pets at various rescue organizations! (This year, we will sponsor veterinary care instead of adoption fees)
Like all Traci's Paws events, Traci's Paws will practice all safety precautions as requested by the CDC and San Diego County, which can be read here: https://www.cdc.gov/covid/index.html
