5th Annual Charity Dog Show- 2022

INFORMATION ABOUT THE EVENT:

We would like to invite everyone to join us at the 5th Annual VetBros Charity Dog Show! This fun event will be held September 18th from 10am - 3pm at the Community Town Center in Carol Stream (960 N. Gary Ave, Carol Stream, IL 60188). We will have many events for pets to participate in, and pet families can win a variety of prizes. We want to show off the best dogs in Illinois! All proceeds go to The VetBros Pet Education Charitable Fund. This event will directly help pet owners in our community with any hardships that they may be undergoing. Please consider participating in one of the fun events, making a charitable donation, or simply attending the event and supporting our cause.

The VetBros Pet Education Charitable Fund will be hosting this event. This program was created to help support veterinarians in offering low or no-cost services to clients facing extraordinary hardships, as well as to support animals rescued from abuse and neglect. The VetBros Pet Education Charitable Fund encourages community members to make tax-deductible charitable contributions to this organization by visiting http://vetbrospeteducation.org and clicking the donate button.

The VetBros Pet Education Charitable Fund is a 501c3 organization that contributes considerable time and money each year to local animal health-related charitable endeavors in Carol Stream and the greater Chicago area. This charitable organization helps veterinarians be empowered to provide charitable care to those in need right here in our community, including disabled veterans requiring a service dog, low income senior citizens, Good Samaritans who rescue domesticated animals, and victims of domestic violence. We are excited to play an even bigger role in our community by being able to help more pets and people undergoing hardships.

We appreciate your support!

Sincerely,

The Entire VetBros Pet Education Charitable Fund Organization

10:30am - Best Senior

Any dog over 7 years old is eligible to compete in this event. The judge will assess each senior dog on their health, mobility, behavior, and appearance. We also encourage handlers to share any interesting or fun stories you have that may help with a tie-breaker scenario.

11:00 am: Dog Races - WIN FUN PRIZES

11:00am -Best Trick

Any dog is welcome to compete in this competition. The judge will assess each trick based on proper execution, trick type, how funny/impressive the trick is and their ability to repeat the trick. If your dog can do multiple tricks, it’s probably best to select the top three to showcase during the event.

11:30 am - Best Puppy

Any dog younger than 1 year old is eligible to compete in this event. The judge will assess each puppy on their health, obedience, behavior, and appearance. We also encourage handlers to share any interesting or fun stories you have that may help with a tie-breaker scenario.

Any rescue dog 30lbs or more is welcome to compete in this competition. We are not limiting this competition to dogs from shelters and rescue organizations. If anyone has ‘rescued’ a dog from a bad situation they are eligible to compete. In this competition, we are looking for the best rescue story, which we understand is quite subjective.

12:30 pm - Best Rescue UNDER 30 pounds -

Any rescue dog weighing less than 30lbs is welcome to compete in this competition. We are not limiting this competition to dogs from shelters and rescue organizations.
