For the past eight years, Pound Paws has been throwing unforgettable Dog Day events all over Australia, and we’re just getting started!

Our mission is simple: to raise awareness about pet adoption and teach communities how to be responsible pet owners in the most fun way possible.
 

Our Dog Day events are fast becoming a staple on the Australian event scene, regularly making headlines in the media, attracting celebrity guests, and most importantly, spreading the powerful message of #ADOPTDONTSHOP. It's all about making a difference—while having an absolute blast!

Every Pound Paws event is a 100% charity fundraising effort. While we have a blast, we’re also working hard to raise awareness about the importance of adopting, and the joy that comes with welcoming a pet into your life. It’s about building a stronger, more compassionate community that values all furry friends!
 

We’re so proud of the amazing community that’s grown around these events. It’s a place to meet like-minded pet lovers, share stories, and of course, support our cause.
 

Important note: Only events promoted by Pound Paws are officially part of our mission. If an event doesn’t clearly state its connection to Pound Paws, it’s not affiliated with us. We don’t profit from these events—every penny raised goes straight to supporting the day and animals in need of new homes and the love they deserve.
