Entry to the festival is just $2 and proceeds from Woofstock, VAO’s largest fund-raising event of the year, support medical care, pet food and supplies for the community shelter’s dogs and cats.
The fun-filled event will feature dog demonstrations, food trucks and music.

“Each year, Woofstock helps raise awareness about VAO’s mission and helps us continue to provide medical care and feed and house cats and dogs until we can place them into their forever homes,” said Jennifer Bailey, marketing director, VAO. “With so much uncertainty and stress in the world nowadays, it’s a comfort to know that we can still come together for a day of peace, love and pets!”
