ARF Hamptons Celebrated Pet Joy with a Fun-Filled Pet Celebration Day

On Saturday, May 17, 2025, ARF Hamptons welcomed the community to its East Hampton Adoption Center for the annual Pet Celebration Day, a festive and heartwarming gathering dedicated to the animals we love and the joy they bring into our lives.

From 11 AM to 2 PM, families (and their furry companions) enjoyed a lively fair packed with activities and resources—from pet adoptions and a dog agility course to free microchipping, low-cost vaccines, and nail clippings. Kids got crafty with Pawcasso, while dog owners chatted with trainers and picked up treats from local vendors. Food trucks, live music, and plenty of puppy ice cream rounded out the afternoon.

ARF also partnered with James Lane Post, who was on-site to announce winners of their Cutest Pet Contest, adding extra excitement to the day. With generous support from sponsors and a strong turnout of animal lovers, Pet Celebration Day was a tail-wagging success that embodied the spirit of ARF’s mission.
