Bring the whole family, both furry and otherwise, to Historic Downtown Carrollton (1106 S. Broadway Street) on Saturday, June 8, from 9 a.m. to noon, for a tail-wagging good time at the City’s eighth annual Paws on the Square. This free, animal-friendly extravaganza brings people, pets, animal welfare organizations, and pet-friendly companies together for attendees to play, shop, and learn all in one convenient location.Visit one of Downtown Carrollton’s many delicious restaurants or browse the pet-focused vendor booths to find everything from pet accessories and treats to people food and helpful info. Create lasting memories with free caricatures as well as professional pet photos. JeTT Pets will be providing free light pet grooming services.
This event also includes free City registration with proof of rabies vaccination for Carrollton residents. Pet registrations are helpful in reuniting lost pets with their owners and are also required by City ordinances. Texas Coalition for Animal Protection will provide low-cost rabies vaccinations and microchipping from 10 a.m. to noon.
Stop by the Carrollton Animal Services (CAS) booth to learn about programs, volunteering opportunities, and adoptions. CAS will also be accepting both monetary and material donations during the event.
“Those looking to create lasting memories with their pets should definitely come out,” Carrollton Animal Services Manager Travis Caperton said. “There aren’t very many events that focus on the special relationship between pets and their human companions the way Paws on the Square does.”
All dogs must have ID tags, be on a leash at all times, have a current rabies vaccination (or are about to receive one), and be accompanied by someone 18 years or older. Attendees will receive a dog-related promotional item while supplies last.
Sponsorship opportunities are still available for this event, which has drawn hundreds of animal lovers to Historic Downtown Carrollton over the past eight years. Sponsors to date include Texans Credit Union.
