Bark N' Blue

Dogs and their humans are invited to enjoy a crisp fall day filled with scenic mountain strolls, dog-friendly patios, and lively entertainment. With fun contests and activities for pups of all shapes and sizes, it’s a celebration made for four-legged friends and their favourite people all in support of the Georgian Triangle Humane Society.

Dog Lovers Lure Course

Ready, set, chase! As part of Bark N’ Blue, the Dog Lovers’ Lure Course invites dogs to run, play, and follow a moving lure through a fun, staff-supported course designed with safety and comfort in mind.

This activity is a great fit for energetic pups who love to sprint, curious dogs trying something new, and owners looking for a memorable way to let their four-legged friend burn off some excitement in the Village.
