Pet Fashion Parade

Does your pet like to flaunt his or her stuff? If yes, then you need to enter your pet in the Pet Fashion Parade! Whether fancy, formal, funky, or a mix of styles, this competition is your pet’s best chance to really shine! Owners are encouraged to add to the fun by dressing up! Or maybe your pet has an amazing talent, here’s your chance to show it off!

The Contest will consist of the following categories: Best Dog, Best Cat and other Pet category.
