There will be obedience shows and workshops so you can meet fellow pet lovers as you learn how to better train and understand your pets. Singapore’s very own dog whisperer Patrick Wong will also be appearing at the event to give live demos on how to teach your dog some new tricks. He will also be dishing out advice on how to deal with different dog personalities so you can do some dog whispering yourself.
It’s also a great place to meet with other dog lovers to exchange tips and tricks, make new friends and get your dog to socialise with others. Who knows, you might be lucky enough to meet Singapore’s very own skateboarding dog!
You’ve probably had an obsession at some point – Pokemon trading cards, action figures, designer handbags or maybe even stamps. You may just find what you’re looking for at the fair. Fellow collectors will be present to display or sell their collections, and make contacts. You might just meet some guy who knows a guy, whose brother has a signed David Beckham jersey he wants to sell!
No more boring weekends wasting away in front of the TV or lying in bed. Paint your life with the wonderful array of possibilities at the show, and unleash the passion in you! Embrace the painter, fighter, pet tamer or dancer in you and get ready to live the rest of your life in a brand new way. Take the first step at the Singapore Hobbies Expo!
