The Mid-South Petfest strives to create a fun and exciting event in hopes of generating much needed funds to support of Mid South Area Humane Societies and Pet Rescue Groups. This event is unlike any other local event in that not only do we offer an event to bring your pets we also have many vendors of all sorts and Humane Societies and Pet Rescue Groups at one venue to showcase available pets for adoption.

Q: Is there any Pet Etiquette I need to be aware of?
A: In order to keep order to this day and make it a success, please abide by the following guidelines:All visitors will receive a poopy bag. Please carry it with you during the Event, and if your pup needs to stop to "use the facilities," please use the bag and dispose of it in one of the Pet Waste disposal Bins. Volunteers will come by after the Event to pick up and dispose of all bags. Please use a regular leash (preferably 4 feet).
