Pet Events This Halloween Season in Southern California

Halloween isn't just reserved for children and adults, pets can get into the fun this season as well! There are some really entertaining events happening in southern California this year. I've included one in Hollywood, Riverside as well as Long Beach. If you are in the area, be sure to stop by as they will benefit animal charities as well as shelters.

Haute Dog Howl'een Parade, Costume Contest and Pet Adoption in Long Beach

Location: Livingston Park, 4900 E. Livingston Drive, Long Beach
Date: October 28th
Time: 11:00 a.m.

This supposedly is one of the largest pet events for the Halloween season so this is the place to be if you have a furry friend if you live near Long Beach. Last year, more than 500 pets showed up and this year, many more are to attend. The pet adoption fair will take place between 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. If you aren't interested in adopting an animal, then you can come a little later for the pet costume contest.
