Exciting Soggy Dog Pool Party Coming Up in Nags Head!
If you’re in Nags Head and looking for a way to spend a delightful afternoon with your furry friend, look no further! The Coastal Humane Society is throwing its 5th Annual Soggy Dog Pool Party, and it’s sure to be a splash-tastic event for both pets and their owners. Mark your calendars for September 7th, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., because you won’t want to miss this!
A Day of Fun and Safety
This annual event will take place at the Outer Banks Family YMCA, located at 3000 S. Croatan Highway. For a small admission fee of just $10 per dog, your beloved pooch can enjoy a full day of fun in the water! Just make sure to bring either cash or check as payment at the gate. It’s not only a fantastic way for dogs to play and meet new friends, but it also supports a great cause—the Coastal Humane Society’s Emergency Assistance Fund.
While the focus is on tail-wagging fun, the safety of attendees—both human and furry—comes first. So, don’t forget to bring proof of your dog’s vaccinations! This is important to ensure a safe environment for everyone involved. Dog owners are reminded to keep an eye on their pets and to follow any guidelines set at the pool party for a smooth and enjoyable day.
What to Expect
Your pups can look forward to splashing around in the pool, diving for toys, and making new friends. There will be plenty of opportunities for *paw-sitive interaction*, and who knows? Your dog might just find their new best friend! It’s always heartwarming to see the joy that comes from a carefree day spent in water, especially when it involves dogs being their playful selves.
Besides the pool, there could be other fun activities planned, including contests for the best doggie swim suit or the most creative dog and owner duo! Keep an ear out for announcements about any extra goodies or surprises on the event day.
How to Prepare Your Pup
As the big day approaches, there are a few things you can do to prepare your four-legged companion. First and foremost, make sure that your dog is comfortable and familiar with water. If this will be your dog’s first pool experience, try introducing them to water gradually in a safe environment before the event. Also, consider bringing their favorite toys along so that they have something familiar to play with during the festivities.
Don’t forget to pack essentials for the day as well! Bring plenty of fresh water to keep your pup hydrated, especially since it’s going to be a warm September day. A towel or two will also come in handy for drying them off afterwards. And let’s be honest—bringing some snacks for both yourself and your pet is always a good idea!
Join the Fun!
This Soggy Dog Pool Party is a wonderful opportunity to support a local organization and have a blast with your pet. It’s a joyous community event that highlights the love we all have for our furry friends. Whether your dog is a seasoned swimmer or just loves to splash around, this gathering promises to be an unforgettable experience.
So grab your leash, pack your bags, and get ready for a day filled with wagging tails and happy barks. We hope to see you—along with your enthusiastic pups—on September 7th at the Outer Banks Family YMCA! Let’s make a splash together and support a great cause while we’re at it!
