APA's Canine Carnival Coming Back to Town!
Round up the doggies and load the family in the (station) wagon –Canine Carnival is coming back to town!
The Animal Protective Association of Missouri hosts its 23rd Carnival on Sunday, October 6 at Tilles Park in Ladue from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and this year the festival promises to be bigger and better than ever. In addition to the games, contests and prizes everyone knows and loves, Carnival goers will find more APA goodies, more adoptable animals, more activities for kids and more games for pooches!
Test your Schnauzer’s snack-catching abilities in the popular Cheese Ball Toss, show off your Airedale’s agility in The Maze, or enter the face only a dog mother could love in this year’s new, celebrity-judged “Ugliest” Dog Contest! The Purina Incredible Dog Team will also be on site to wow the crowd with amazing feats of canine athleticism and acrobatics.
