About the day
A brand new day out for the Echuca-Moama community.
Doggy Day Out brings together dogs, their families, local businesses and animal lovers from across the region for a day of connection, education and celebration. Believed to be the first event of its kind in Echuca-Moama, we are building it to become an annual tradition.
Based on expressions of interest, we are expecting around 200 dogs and hundreds of community members through the gate. Most importantly, every dollar raised helps The 4S Legacy Inc continue funding private cremation and memorial keepsakes for families in financial hardship, so they can farewell their companion with dignity and compassion.
What's on
- Fun dog competitions
- Interactive activities
- A goodie bag for every doggy

Bring your best mate
Every shape, size and personality welcome.
