A note to our friends & fans:
We set out to create a small, socially-distanced event series that promised to bring the spirit of Petfest to our community.
We succeeded on our first try, but now feel the weight of uncertainty is just too great for our Pop-Up series to continue safely this Fall. We’ll be back in 2021.
We urge you to get out and stay active with your pet. Stay safe. Visit a dog park. Take a walk. And, give your pets some extra ear scratches from us.
Because all good girls and boys deserve treats, click the link below for a free bag of Crunchy Os with your next Fromm purchase.
Stay safe and we’ll see you at Petfest again soon.

Join us for the first ever Petfest Pop-Up series. We’ve teamed up with Foxtown Brewing to host a series of pet-friendly, social-distanced outdoor fun for the whole family!
Let Fido run free on our fully fenced and turfed dog park supervised by the playtime pros from Central Bark-Mequon. Stick around for some snacks and a brew from the craft beer devotees at Foxtown Brewing in the beer garden. Enjoy a rotating schedule of weekly live music and pet-centric fun.
The Petfest Pop-Up Dog Park is free to attendees. To help manage safety and social-distancing, we offer a free reservation system to reduce wait times. Click the link below to reserve your time window. Spots are limited so sign up soon! Those with a reservation have priority access to the dog park, faster wait times, and a way to virtually sign your pet waiver. Walk-ups are also welcome.
Save time and bring your waiver with you! Download and sign your pet waiver here. Dogs participating in our free dog park must sign a pet waiver before entering the park. Waivers will also be available on site.
