Time Out says

On October 26 and 27 at the Melbourne Showgrounds, you can celebrate your beloved four-legged friend at the Dog Lovers Festival (which also happens to be the event's tenth birthday).

As one of the world's largest dog-dedicated festivals, you can look forward to seeing pups of all shapes, sizes and breeds. There will be live performances from talented canines, engaging talks by dog experts, dedicated petting zones, carnival rides, pool diving pups, stalls spruiking the latest products and services, and so much more. There will also be exciting new adoption initiatives to help more dogs in need. Essentially, it's heaven for pooch lovers. 

Whether you own a pup of your own or you're simply a lover of dogs, this event will be filled to the brim with fun dog-related activities. The event will run from 9.30am until 5pm daily, and tickets are on sale now through the Dog Lovers Festival website.
