The tails portion will consist of everything from a pet portrait station to a silly pet trick competition.
“We’ll have a pet vendor show, we’ll have over 20 businesses local businesses who will have everything from collar to accessories to treats, we’ll have rescues and vets as well so you can come check out what the local community has to offer pet owners,” stated Hecht.
