Your Weekly Scoop on Local Dog-Friendly Events

This week has a little bit of everything, but it’s all centered around one of the biggest dog events of the year.

The 35th Annual Pet Walk at SPCA Tampa Bay is the headline event — a full-on community day with live entertainment, races, and plenty of dogs out and about for a great cause. Around that, the usual spots are packed all week. The Dog Bar keeps things moving with food trucks, bingo, salsa night, and weekend events, while Mutts & Martinis is loaded up with happy hours, tacos & ’ritas, line dancing, and a Paint Your Pet night.

Two Shepherds Taproom continues to be a go-to with trivia, drag queen bingo, and food truck nights, and the markets are everywhere this week — from Madeira Beach midweek to Dunedin on Saturday and multiple Sunday markets to close things out.

Whether you're planning around the Pet Walk or just looking for something easy to do with your dog after work, there’s something going on every single day. Grab the leash — let’s get into it.
