Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to own a golden retriever to come?

Not at all! While this event celebrates golden retrievers, anyone who loves dogs is welcome to attend.

Are other dog breeds allowed?

Yes! While golden retrievers are the stars of the day, all friendly, well-socialized dogs are welcome. We simply ask that all dogs are comfortable in busy environments and around other dogs.

Does my dog need to be leashed?

Yes. All dogs must be leashed at all times for the safety of guests, vendors, and fellow pups.

What if it rains?

GoldenDay is a rain or shine event. We’ll be there either way! ☀️🌧

What if my dog isn’t comfortable in large crowds?

GoldenDay is expected to draw a strong turnout. If your dog is anxious, reactive, or uncomfortable in busy environments, this may not be the best setting for them. We want it to be safe and enjoyable for everyone.

Is parking available?

Yes! BridgeWay Station has surrounding parking. We recommend arriving early to secure a convenient spot.
