The event is scheduled 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 29, at the Canyon Country Community Center, 18410 Sierra Highway, Santa Clarita.

The family-friendly event features music, vendors, food trucks, a photo booth, games, contests (including a costume parade with many categories of winners, and a peanut butter lick-off), and raffles.
In-person registration begins at 9:30 a.m. on Oct. 29 at the Canyon Country Community Center. Guests can register one dog for $15, and $10 for each additional dog. Registration includes a free goody bag. Guests without a dog are free to come and enjoy all the activities at no charge.
