Lizards, LLamas, and Lots of Fun!

Don't Miss Pet Day May 2, 2020

Pet Day update 3/16/2020:

The health and safety of Oregon State University and the surrounding community is our highest priority. The University and Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine are taking COVID-19 very seriously. As you may know, OSU has moved to online courses for the first half of spring term and many campus events have been postponed or suspended. We feel that with the unpredictability of the spread of COVID-19, timelines of the University and supporting our students in their new learning environment, the college is cancelling Pet Day as this is a student led event. We thank you for your understanding and we look forward to seeing you at our next Pet Day.

Pet Day is one of the most popular annual events in Corvallis! There are lots of fun activities including a petting zoo, teddy bear surgery, dog wash, dog agility demos and more. Numerous booths will be staffed by vendors and volunteers who provide information on animal health and wellness, nutrition, adoption and therapy. Other booths sell animal-related products and gifts. You can also visit with llamas, goats, greyhounds, and ponies!

Pet Day is created, organized and staffed by students in the College of Veterinary Medicine at OSU. It is their way of giving back to the community and continuing a legacy of public service at the college.

So come on down to the corner of 30th and Washington street on the OSU campus on Saturday, May 2, 2020 10:30 am - 3:30 pm. Pet Day is free and open to the public. A few activities like the Fun Run and Dog Wash have small fees (cash only). Free parking is available at the west end of Reser Stadium.

Registration has closed.

Vendor questions can be directed to Sara Smith at sara.k.smith@oregonstate.edu or 541-737-6779.
