Barktoberfest brings festive fun and adoption opportunities to Houston

Join Houston Pets Alive for Barktoberfest, a lively festival packed with delicious eats, entertainment, local vendors, and canines in creative costumes. Beyond the festivities, the event aims to unite adorable pups with loving families in their forever homes.

"We're going to have more than 80 vendors we're going to have tons of costumes, costume contests," said Noelle Delgado executive director of Houston Pets Alive. "This is Talia. She's a mermaid, and she's going to be at Barktoberfest, and she's available for adoption."

Talia is described as a Velcro dog loves to cuddle on the couch and dress up like a mermaid.

"We're going to have plenty of activities for the kids, and we love to see all the pets dressed up," Noelle said. "It's going to be so much fun seeing all the costumed pets included and if somebody doesn't have a costume for their pet they can get one we've got tons of costumes."

This is Charlie Brown he's dressed up like a strong man. For some unknown reason he's also sporting a blue wig.

Charlie is also available for adoption he's described as a perfect family dog. 

The best part of Barktoberfest is every dime spent goes directly to Houston Pets Alive.
