“We are planning to install 30 to 35 stalls with pet food and pet products for sale,” she said, adding that proceedings from the event will be used for medical care of street dogs, including sterilisation and vaccination.
Apart from the above events, the Pet Fest will also organise a fashion show for pets, for which participants must pay a separate registration fee of ₹500.
