Submitted by ProductionGlue
Animal-centric website The Dodo partnered with Samsung to host an event for more than 1,400 dogs and their humans in June 2018 in New York. The event, located at Brookfield Place, was entirely geared toward pups with a fenced-in space covered in turf that offered activities and photo ops including a ball pit, paw- and bone-shape pools, a mini obstacle course, and treats from Shake Shack. The event also gave attendees swag, which included doggy neck scarves, personalized bone-shape dog tags, and a poop bag dispenser.
