Halloween Dog Parade and Costume Contest at Hardberger Park!

This park is one of the more beautiful parks in San Antonio, and a great place for a dog walk. We encourage you to come out and join one of the largest dog walking groups in America.

Event Summary

This is a special edition of our weekly walk for Halloween. We will have the walk and then have a Halloween costume contest at Salado Outdoor Classroom towards the end of the walk. We will be joined by Fred Kniffin of Liberty Dogs San Antonio who as many of you know is our favorite dog trainer and comes highly recommended. Fred and I will judge the costume contest which at the very least will include a Best Halloween Costume- Human and Canine Category. We may have other categories as well.

We would love for you and your dog to come in costumes, but this is not required. We will have prizes! More information to follow!

Location: The park is located very close to the intersection of Wurzbach Parkway and Blanco Road in North-Central San Antonio. The dog park is at the southern end of the park (Near CVS and Dutch Brothers). We will meet at the southern end of the dog park.
