PAWS FOR FUN is proud to be the organizers of the original BARKTOBERFEST PET FAIR in the Lehigh Valley, held annually on the 2nd Saturday in October at Macungie Memorial Park, Macungie, Pa. Be sure to stop by our booth!
Founded in 2010, PAWS FOR FUN (formerly Paws For Sertoma*) was formed by pet lovers who enjoy socializing with their furry companions. We also have a deep commitment to the work of all pet rescues. In accordance with operating as a 501c3, we donate profits from the games we play and the merchandise we sell at pet fairs to local groups involved in finding "furrever" homes for abandoned and abused pets.
Every year, we participate in two local pet fairs:
Quakertown Pet Fair, Quakertown Vet Clinic, 2250 N. Old Bethlehm Pike, Quakertown. Celebrating their 25th year in 2017, it's the biggest pet fair in the area with over 60 vendors and demonstrators.
Barktoberfest Pet Fair, Macungie Memorial Park, 50 N. Poplar St., Macungie. A laid-back pet fair held in a beautiful small town pet-friendly city park. Our club runs this event, which was started in 2009 and is always held on the first Saturday in October, with an average of 40 vendors per year, training demos, and a Pet Blessing service.
Dogs come when they are called; cats take a message and get back to you. - Mary Bly
In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semi-human. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly dog. - Edward Hoagland
In a cat's eye, all things belong to cats. - English Proverb
Dog. A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch
the overflow and surplus of the world's worship. - Ambrose Bierce
