Every Doggos event that you attend is mission based - we believe that dogs should be allowed into public spaces including indoor Holiday markets and parties! We believe that dog owners should not have to choose between fun activities or staying home with our dogs. Fuck that!

Doggos is changing the game with exciting events that your pup is always invited to. So you can roam freely in your city with your dog by your side. We don't just talk the talk, we walk it too! We've hosted dog-friendly comedy shows, yoga classes, club nights, drag shows, networking events, a red carpet event, and now THIS!
