San Bernardino County Regional Parks is excited for the return of Doggie Pool-ooza at Yucaipa Regional Park swim complex on Saturday, Sept. 7 for small dogs and Sunday, Sept. 8 for large dogs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The end of summer event gives our furry friends a chance to run, play, socialize and swim off-leash in the pool.

The event will also include a doggie fashion show, owner/dog look-a-like contest, doggie games, and a rubber duck derby 2.0 waterslide race (ducks will be available for purchase for $1 per duck). Pet adoptions will also be available through San Bernardino County Animal Care. Vendors will be onsite as well as a special event food truck — and a DJ will also be spinning all the tunes to get everyone in the pool-ooza mood. 

Come prepared with your doggie towels, water and snacks, and anything else that is needed for the day. Unfortunately, owners will not be allowed to swim with their dogs as this is a dog swimming event only. Owners are allowed to walk in the shallow end with their dogs while on-leash, but not swim.

Dogs will be measured prior to entering the pool area. Dogs will be measured while on all four paws from the front paw to the top of the head. Small dogs are considered 24 inches or shorter and large dogs are 25 inches or taller. No refunds will be issued for attending the wrong day. Please measure your dog prior to arrival.

Everyone participating will be required to sign a waiver and dogs must be at least six months old, have current license and updated vaccinations to enter pool area. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets. This is a family- and dog-friendly event. Dogs showing aggressive or dangerous behaviors will not be admitted and may be asked to leave.

Park admission is $10 per vehicle. Event admission is $7 per person and $1 per dog, and kids under the age of three are free. The event is free for those camping with us. Yucaipa Regional Park is located at 33900 Oak Glen Road in Yucaipa. For more information about the event, scan the QR code or visit parks.sbcounty.gov/doggie-poolooza.
