Living History Farms welcomes dogs to the museum any day of the season, but on this day, we have several special activities planned to celebrate our best furry friends! Bring your well-behaved pup to tour the museum in the morning and enjoy an afternoon in Walnut Hill with activities and demonstrations. Get a canine caricature, see demonstrations from the Urbandale K-9 unit, and enter the “Ultimate Stay” contest or a gift raffle to win fabulous prizes. Your pooch will have a doggone good time bobbing for wieners, playing musical hoops, being pampered, and more! Dogs must be on a standard (non-retractable) leash and must remain outside buildings and away from livestock.

Open 9am-4pm. Event activities are included in regular admission to Living History Farms.
