The Houston Arboretum & Nature Center invites all interested humans to bring their favorite furry friends to the best “pup” crawl around on the Arboretum grounds on March 13. After four special Saint Arnold Brewing Company beer stops along the Arboretum trails, you’ll interact with local pet vendors at the Pet Expo and walk away with a commemorative Pup Crawl glass. The Houston Arboretum’s partners for Pup Crawl are Saint Arnold Brewing Company and BARC.

The Pet Expo will include vendors offering human and pet apparel, dog treats and food, custom pet portraits, grooming products, and more.

Proceeds support the conservation and education programs of the Houston Arboretum and BARC, the City of Houston’s animal shelter and adoption center. Pet adoptions will also be available onsite.

The Arboretum asks that all pets be leashed for the safety of guests and other dogs during the event. Besides Pup Crawl, people are welcome to bring their dogs on leashes to explore the sights, sounds and smells of the Arboretum’s five miles of trails, open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to dusk.
