Purpose and additional information
The event began after Poppy’s owner sought to give back following a puppy’s recovery from parvovirus with help from a veterinary assistance program. It serves as a fundraiser to provide financial assistance to Oklahoma-based rescues. Dogs are permitted to attend the event. The listing notes that Poppy passed away in February 2025 and the event continues in her memory. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
