More Than 1,000 Animals, State Shows and Animal Entertainers Descend on Puyallup, Wash., for America's Inaugural Family Pet Expo.
After 22 successful years in Southern, California, America’s Family Pet Expo will host its inaugural event at the Puyallup Fair & Events Center in Puyallup, Wash., on Friday 8th, Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th July 2011.

The expo provides a weekend of entertainment for Pierce county residents, with animal performances, stage shows, shopping and the chance to interact with nearly 100 breeds of dogs, cats, birds, fish, llamas, reptiles, pigs, rats, mice, rabbits and exotic animals. There is also the chance to get up close to some of the animals and hold, learn about and adopt them.

Attendees can browse the aisles of the Pet Product Shopping Mart, where thousands of pet products from major pet manufacturers and local retailers will be on sale at special show prices. Additionally, a key fixture at America’s Family Pet Expo is the Pet Adoption Fair, where local adoption agencies and rescue organizations will have hundreds of pets available for adoption. Whether you’re looking to learn about different dog breeds, adopt a furry friend, ride a pony or get up close and personal with exotic animals, America’s Family Pet Expo promises to be a weekend of educational fun for the entire family.

Scheduled attractions include:
