Get Rescued Animal Rescue

We’re not kitten around! This paw-some event has helped hound-reds of homeless animals find their ulti-mutt fur-ever homes for 22 years.

The Animal Rescue Festival & Fun-raiser hosts up to 50 animal rescue groups, pet friendly vendors featuring animal related products, crafts, artwork and other curious treats. Additional activities include pet care education, a pet food and supplies drive, animal training demos, the Florida Weiner Dog Derby, fun-raising raffles, local shops, restaurants and more.

Purr-haps there is a paw-sibility you could help us by hosting a fun-raiser, donating pet supplies, volunteering, and/or sharing this news with all of your fur-ends? We thank you in advance for being re-barkable! With your help, there is no mew-nimum to what we can accomplish in these trying times right meow.

Bring the whole pack! We look fur-ward to seeing you in Downtown Gulfport to participate in one of our area’s most beloved traditions. All leashed people and well-behaved pets are welcome. There is no admission fee to attend and plenty of convenient complimentary parking will be available throughout the area.
