State Fairgrounds Hosting Pet-A-Palooza This Weekend

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Dog owners have a lot to look forward to in the Twin Cities this weekend.

The Minnesota State Fairgrounds is serving as host to the annual Pet-a-Palooza festivities. It's a huge event for pets on Saturday in the Twin Cities metro. There will be plenty of activities for pets and their owners, and an emphasis this year is on summer safety for your pet.

It's always important to have the collar and leash around your dog, but especially in the summer since we're around pools and lakes a lot more. Not every pet is a strong swimmer, so it's important to have those items handy.

It's also important to keep your dog brushed throughout the warm summer months to keep them cool.
