The simple obstacle course will feature a bunch of hurdles to test the agility of your dog – including a ramp, seesaw, tunnel, and 8 poles. What a great way to get them to exercise and play at the same time! No registration is required, all you have to do is show up on the day with your pups.

The event is not only pet-friendly but kid-friendly too. Head to the animal-themed craft stations to make some DIY art projects with your little ones. The first one is a paw print frame with artwork made from clay instead of paint, so things don’t get too messy. The other is a 20-minute session of clay art making where one can mould the material into cute animal shapes.

These are suitable for kids above 7 years old and require parents to supervise, so join in on the fun. There’ll also be an interactive workshop conducted by Animal & Veterinary Services on responsible pet ownership designed specially for kids to help them discover and connect with animals.
