Over three days, visitors can meet and interact with over 800 beautiful dogs representing more than 100 breeds.
The Show’s iconic program has been reinvigorated to cater for the new wave of dog owners with essential tips on training, separation anxiety, puppy proofing, canine mental health and overall health and wellbeing.
TV vet Dr Katrina Warren returns to the Vitapet Arena with animal training guru Kelly Gill and The Wonderdogs to astound onlookers with a slew of new tricks. Crowds will be wowed by the new ‘K9 Ninja Championships’, as dogs navigate a wild obstacle course hosted by Big Brother star, Farmer Dave Graham. Plus, watch talented pups take fetch to the extreme in the annual Flyball and Frisbee competitions, hosted by Lucy Karbowiak and Emily Lyons.
Educational talks will be hosted each day on the PETstock Stage by some of Australia’s leading dog experts including Lara Shannon and Rose Horton. Fresh from their hit, sheep-herding demos at the Sydney Dog Lovers Show last August, those talented Beloka Kelpies from South Gippsland will impress onlookers with their working dog antics when they join Rose on stage. As part of the coveted InstaPooch feature, some of the nation’s biggest canine Instagram stars will strut their stuff on the 20-metre-long red carpet.
Get in the SPLASHZONE with crowd-favourite DockDogs to watch four-legged athletes launch themselves into a 100,000-litre Indoor pool, vying to take out titles for longest and highest jumps and fastest retrievals. Meanwhile, budding pet owners can find an A-Z of breeds to explore in the Breed Showcase and meet dozens of pups looking for forever homes in the PETstock Adoption Zone. Visitors can also learn all about the ins and outs of giving dogs in need a second chance at happy-ever-after, with educational talks on the PETstock Adoption Stage.

Future fur-parents can discover the best breed to suit their home and lifestyle in the Bow Wow Meow Perfect Match Zone. Kids can channel their favourite breed with FREE Doggy Face Painting and snap show memories against the new Neon Glitter Selfie and Funny Photo Walls.
