Westfield Welcome has announced that Barktoberfest, presented by Community First Bank, will return to Asa Bales Park from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 8.

This dog-themed event is the perfect activity for you and your furry friend. With costume contests on the hour beginning at noon, an agility course and pet-related vendors, you won’t want to miss out on this exciting day. Activities also include professional pet portraits, paw painting and adorable pets for adoption at the Humane Society booth.

“This is one of my favorite events we put on,” said Community Events Coordinator Kristen Mix. “It’s so nice to see everyone out with their dogs having fun.”

Tickets are $5 per person, and ages four and under will need to reserve a free ticket. Dogs will not require a separate ticket. Click here to get tickets for Barktoberfest.
