National Dog Day Festival 2025 at The Rotunda

Saturday, August 23

(Rain date: Sunday, August 24)

11 a.m. to 4.p.m

FREE for animals and their humans

Dogs and their humans will love this fun-filled day featuring pet games, local pet vendors, doggie activities, pet photos and live pet portraits, a Flea-less yard sale, visits with adoptable dogs and cats, live music, food and drink vendors, and more!

Help out the Maryland SPCA by purchasing a “PAWS-Port” for your pooch, which allows you and your dog to do three activities hosted by the Maryland SPCA: hot dog bobbing, paw painting and make-your-own dog toy. PAWS-Ports will be sold at the door.
