Originally created exclusively for horse show dogs, we spent our first 2 years traveling throughout the country to large equestrian sporting events, providing a fun, safe and horse-free haven for dogs. While competitors conducted their horse show business, our K-9 guests enjoyed play and/or rest time under our large tent, complete with doggie furniture, constant supervision and relief from extreme
temperatures with heat when it’s cold and cool mist on the extremely hot days. The Pooch Paddock is thrilled to be of service at The Texas Renaissance Festival for our third straight year. Our facility has created one solution to a dilemma that has affected dog owners in Houston (and beyond) for years: What do you do with your dog while you are at the Ren Fest for several hours? Your day at the Faire should never be cut short just because you need to get home to walk the dog. Having your dog in our care, just outside the gates, allows you to enjoy more time inside the Faire. When you and your dog arrive at The Pooch Paddock, you will be asked to fill out a few forms, including a “Pet Information” sheet, which tells us a little bit about your dog’s personality. Please arrive at The Pooch Paddock with documentation from your veterinarian showing when your dog’s shots were administered and when they expire. We will not be able to accommodate your dog without this proof of vaccinations. The Pooch Paddock requires all guests to have the following vaccinations: Parvo/Distemper combination, Rabies and Bordetella (Kennel Cough).
