Dog Events in Upper Marlboro, MD

Lace up your sneakers and grab Fido's leash to participate in a walk with your furry friend. All skill levels are welcome; there will be light refreshments and social time with others afterward.

You and Fido are invited to come out on Thanksgiving morning for this fun-filled charity race. Perfect for adults, teenagers, children, and even your pup, the Turkey Trot is a guaranteed way to get a healthy start to your day and do something good for your community. Be sure to register in advance by visiting the event website. Dogs who attend should be well-socialized, well-behaved, on a leash at all times and line up with their owners at the back of the pack. Please remember to clean up after your pup.

Well-behaved dogs on non-retractable leashes are welcome at this annual parade that features beautifully decorated boats decked out in festive lights and creative holiday themes. Watch as dozens of vessels parade by, competing for awards like "Best in Show" and "Most Holiday Cheer." The parade route stretches for one mile along the waterfront.

On this select date only, Enchant Christmas welcomes leashed dogs and their people to explore dazzling light displays, take photos with Santa and enjoy special pet-friendly routes!
