The main idea behind this three-day pet fair is to make people responsible pet owners. They need to be aware of the responsibility that comes along with keeping a pet, says Binoy Sahee, director of the fair.

One of the most exciting features of the fair will be the Canine Café. Since there aren’t any pet-friendly restaurants or cafes in the city, this one will give you an opportunity to hangout with your pooch as you enjoy a cup of coffee.One can buy doggie dabbas, cakes and cookies for dogs at the café. These are all safe for them, says Sahee.

Stalls selling pet food, pet accessories and healthy products will also be put up at the fair. To add a dash of fun, activities such as grooming sessions, a dog fashion and obedience show, and a game of hide and seek in which the pet has to search for its owner, will
also be organised.
