Puptober Fest at K-9 Cove, Miami Lakes | Event Photographer

What a fun day at K-9 Cove for this year’s Puptober Fest, hosted by the City of Miami Lakes! The park was packed with pups in costume, families enjoying the sunshine, and lots of happy energy. From little superheroes to dogs dressed as pumpkins, there was no shortage of creativity or wagging tails.

The event had something for everyone: raffles, prizes, music, the famous Hallo-weenie Races, and plenty of treats for both pups and people. I loved walking through and capturing all the excitement, the laughs, and those sweet candid moments that happen when dogs meet new friends. It was such a feel-good day that truly showed what community is all about.

A big thank-you to the amazing sponsors who helped make the event happen—Zen Canine Club, Llanos Dental, and UM Athletics.

The Miami Maniac even stopped by to join the fun, getting plenty of attention from both the crowd and the pups.

I had so much fun capturing all the adorable faces and festive moments throughout the day. If you joined Puptober Fest this year, you might spot yourself or your pup in the gallery. Check it out and download your favorites here: VIEW GALLERY
