The "Dogs & Fun" in Dortmund is an annual fair held every May, transforming the Westfalenhalle into a gigantic dog paradise. Since its inception in 2000, the family-friendly public fair, organized by the Verband für das Deutsche Hundewesen (VDH) e. V., has become a central meeting point for dog lovers and professionals.

As an experiential fair, "Dogs & Fun" invites visitors not only to browse and learn but also to discover products related to their four-legged friends and purchase them at attractive fair prices.

Retailers, breeders, service providers, and specialized media showcase their latest products, information, and animal demonstrations. In special expert and veterinary Q&A sessions, visitors can receive valuable tips on caring for, training, and feeding their dogs. A varied, full-day show and supporting program across different activity areas makes the fair an experience for the whole family. Breeders, associations, and clubs provide firsthand information and are available to assist visitors.

Spectacular demonstrations of dogs in action are a fixed part of the fair. Retailers, breeders, and experts are on-site to answer questions and offer practical advice. The fair provides numerous activity areas that invite visitors to participate, marvel, and enjoy.

The fair takes place at the Westfalenhallen Congress Center in Dortmund. With modern event spaces and comprehensive infrastructure, the Congress Center provides an ideal setting for "Dogs & Fun." The Westfalenhalle is a central event venue in Dortmund, easily accessible by car and public transport.

Dogs & Fun has established itself as a must-attend event for dog lovers, offering a wide range of information, products, and entertainment for the whole family.

The Dogs & Fun will take place on 3 days from Friday, 23. May to Sunday, 25. May 2025 in Dortmund.
