Monmouth SPCA Holds 1st Ever Pet Palooza In Eatontown April 30

EATONTOWN, NJ — The Monmouth County SPCA just announced that their annual Dog Walk & Pet Fair — traditionally held every year on the campus of Brookdale Community College — has been re-imagined.

This brand new event is now called Pet Palooza, "A Walk for All Animals," plus a Pet Fair.

It will be held from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. April 30 at the Monmouth County SPCA campus in Eatontown.

This is open to the public, and anyone can and should attend if you like dogs, rescue pets or if you want to raise money for rescue animals.

The Monmouth County SPCA hopes to draw big crowds at this family-friendly event by offering pet-related attractions such as kitten yoga sessions, a puppy kissing booth, a dog zone with playgroups and dog-related refreshments, raffles and prizes, a kid zone with animal-related crafts and activities, food and drink, vendors for both pets & people, half-priced microchips (while supplies last) and so much more.

This fundraising event encourages people to pre-register for exclusive access to event merchandise, a food and drink voucher at the event, and a personalized fundraising page where top participants can compete for big prizes.

Event registration is now open and the shelter is seeking both sponsors and vendors for this highly anticipated event. For more information, please email events@monmouthcountyspca.org or call 732-542-0040 x 7.

Registration with exclusive access to incentives and prizes will close April 25, however people and pets can still attend the event for a suggested donation. Cash generated from the day-of-event attractions will benefit the MCSPCA animals and programs.

After two consecutive years of having to hold the Dog Walk virtually due to the pandemic, the Monmouth County SPCA is happy to once again have an in-person event.

The idea of evolving the former Dog Walk into an all-inclusive Pet Palooza is to celebrate all of the animals the Monmouth County SPCA cares for, from wildlife and livestock animals, to beloved family pets. The MCSPCA will be showcasing all of their shelter and community programs at the event with interactive presentations, staff meet & greets, live demonstrations and campus tours throughout the day.
