We’re throwing the ulti-mutt paw-ty at the Dallas Farmers Market this Howl-O-Ween Weekend. Bring your furry best friend or meet your newest one, but make sure to join us for all the tail-wagging, yummy treat-eating, spooktacular fun!

On Saturday, October 25, enter the Doggy Costume Contest beginning at 11:00 a.m. with prizes for Best-Dressed Pups – winner announced at 11:45 a.m. (must be present to win). Take part in our Furry Photo Ops by @shantellyd with a $5 donation to Doodle Rock Rescue, also from 11:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., and meet Adorable Adoptable Doodles with DRR from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

On Sunday, October 26, Hearty Paws Great Dane Rescue will be here from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., sharing information on adopting and fostering these gentle giants. There’s another shot at winning the Doggy Costume Contest from 12:30 p.m. to 1:00 p.m., and make sure to visit the Yourgi tent between 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to learn all about this beyond-helpful app that connects you with trusted pet care professionals for grooming, vet visits, boarding, and more. Book easily, track care, and enjoy peace of mind all through one service.

Looking for fur baby treats? These are just a few of our weekend-long fang-tastic vendors ready to make your pup’s Halloween extra special:

  • Happy Tails Dog Food – Nutritious meals for pups who deserve only the best, no tricks allowed.
  • Jack’s Premium – Top-quality dried bones and animal skins perfect for a spooky-good snack.
  • Lula Pup Shop – Bark-tastic “dog mom” and “dog dad” merch, plus adorable collars, bandanas, and their unique Bead Collar Bar now featuring Halloween-themed options.
  • Natural Buddy – Pet-safe shampoos that’ll leave your pup smelling frightfully fresh.
  • Pea’s Peanut Butter Dog Treats – Homemade goodies your dog will go mutts for.

We’re so excited to make this weekend all about the four-legged family members in our lives, but dogs are thoroughly welcome in The Shed and on The Market patios every day of the year. Please be courteous to others and bring your own bag (BYOB) to clean up after your loveable pet.

Whether you’re accompanied by a little “hotdog” or a fluffy “pumpkin,” treat your goodest boy or girl to a weekend you won’t want to miss at the DFM!
