Birmingham Youth Assistance is hosting its 40th Annual Kids’ Dog Show on Sunday, February 5th. The event, which will take place at Berkshire Middle School in Beverly Hills, is open to local kids aged 4-14 who want to show off their furry friends. There will be five categories that participants can compete in, including Best Costume (dog and child), Best Trick, Waggiest Tail, Best Looking, and Musical Sit. Additionally, the Oakland County Sheriff’s Department will provide a K-9 dog skills demonstration and bring one of their comfort dogs for families to meet.

Advance registration for the Kids’ Dog Show is required by Friday, February 3rd, and the cost is $15 per dog. This includes admission for the whole family, a goodie bag of treats for the pup, and a fun-filled afternoon.
