Chewy Summer Social at Chewy Bark Park
If you’re not a fan of wet dog smell, you might want to avoid Coral Gables’ Chewy Bark Park on Saturday. The Underline park will be packed with splashing pups for the Chewy Summer Social, which invites dogs to cool off in pop-up pools, explore Frisco’s latest pet gear, and enjoy music, treats, games, and giveaways, with the added thrill of possibly being spotted by Chewy’s Pet Talent team. Organizers also aim to set a world record for the largest-ever dog pool party. 10 a.m. at Chewy Bark Park, 4500 Ponce De Leon Blvd., Coral Gables. Admission is free with RSVP via eventbrite.com.
