Umpqua Woofstock Howl-O-Ween Festival Brings Pet Activities And Discount Vaccines To Sutherlin

SUTHERLIN, Ore. - Pets and their families can celebrate Halloween and access discounted vaccinations when Umpqua Woofstock holds its annual Howl-O-Ween Festival on Saturday, Oct. 10, at Sutherlin Central Park.

The event runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will include pet costume activities, contests, prizes, local vendors, and community organizations. For the Love of Paws Veterinary Clinic will provide the discount vaccine clinic.

Among the planned activities is a pumpkin pie eating contest for dogs, with separate categories for small, medium, and large dogs. Families are also invited to dress up and take part in the Halloween activities.

Alongside the festivities, the event supports Umpqua Woofstock’s work to make veterinary care more affordable for local pet owners. Proceeds from the organization’s events help support its Discount Vaccine Clinic Fund, which helps bring affordable vaccination opportunities to the community.

Umpqua Woofstock said those services are part of its effort to help families keep their pets healthy and in their homes.

Established in 2022, the local nonprofit supports the bond between people and their pets through educational activities, community events, and assistance during times of need. Its events receive support from local businesses, volunteers, vendors, sponsors, and community members.

The announcement did not list vaccine prices or registration requirements.
