Canine Adoption and Rescue League (C.A.R.L.) announces the return of its Pooch Parade! The 2023 Pooch Parade Dog Walk and Pet Expo takes place on Sunday, August 20 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Ventura Harbor Village, 1575 Spinnaker Drive in Ventura. The public is encouraged to come and play with adoptable dogs of all breeds and sizes and bring their pets dressed up as the superhero of their choice.
“We’re thrilled to return to Ventura Harbor Village for the Pooch Parade,” says C.A.R.L. Executive Director Sharon L. Clark. “The pandemic halted our activities for the past four years, but we are ready to bring this fun, family-friendly event back to the community this summer.”
This year’s theme is “Superheroes,” and attendees are welcome to dress up their dogs and cats as their favorite fictional comic book character like “Superman,” “Blade,” or “Wonder Woman” or “Captain America” for a costume contest. The event will also feature a DJ, vendors, an agility course, arts and crafts, a silent auction to benefit C.A.R.L. and more.
Members of the press are encouraged to cover the 2023 Pooch Parade on the day of the event at Ventura Harbor Village. Members of the C.A.R.L. leadership team are available to provide interviews at the Pooch Parade. Members of the press can also shoot a story at our location in Santa Paula by contacting us at the information in this news release.
C.A.R.L. is located in Ventura County, California and primarily serves Ventura County dogs. Because of our lifetime commitment to our dogs, we have a preference to place dogs locally so we are available to them if needed. We rely on donations and do not receive government, state or city funding. We operate almost entirely by volunteers.
