Family Fun at the Pet Expo

ANNUAL PET EXPO TO BENEFIT THE HENRICO HUMANE SOCIETY

Family Fun for All – Pet Contests, Vendors, Kid’s Area, Adoptable Dogs and More

Henrico Humane Society (HHS) will hold its annual Pet Expo on Saturday, February 22 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Richmond Raceway Complex, 600 E. Laburnum Ave., Richmond, Va. 23222.

Pet Expo is a family and pet friendly event designed with your pet in mind! A full day of activities is scheduled including a pet parade, puppy and Dachshund races, dog contests, a lure course, dog adoptions and several silent auctions. The Kid’s Area will have fun activities and an ‘adoption stand’ with stuffed animals. Over 50 vendors will be onsite selling pet-related products and services. Attendees can find everything from unique collars to toys and treats made just for the dog in your life to obedience trainers! 

“The Pet Expo combines family fun with pet-friendly events and activities for everyone,” HHS Vice President and event organizer Melissa Golden said. “As our flagship fundraising event for more than two decades, the Pet Expo enables us to continue to rescue animals and provide the medical care and support so many of them need before they can be adopted.”

Admission is $10 for adults at the door and $5 for children ages 6-12; children under 6 and pets are free. Tickets can be purchased online for $8 prior to the event. All proceeds benefit Henrico Humane Society. For more information on the Pet Expo, visit the HHS Facebook page or check out their website.
