This Mother’s Day, pet lovers and their four-legged family members are invited to celebrate the special bond between moms and their “furbabies” at this family-friendly community event benefiting the Santa Barbara County Animal Care Foundation.

Dress up with your dogs, cats, or other beloved companions and stroll through the historic district, visiting local merchants and collecting stamps on your event “paws-sport” passport. Completed pawssports will be entered into prize drawings featuring amazing donations from local businesses and sponsors.

Enjoy a lively costume contest with categories like Best Mom & Furbaby Duo, Funniest Costume, Most Creative, Best Rescue Story, and Crowd Favorite.

Winners will be announced during the afternoon celebration, along with live music, raffle drawings, sponsor recognition, and a special spotlight on adoptable shelter animals.
