The two-day event kicked off on Saturday with hundreds of pooches and people eager to work their paws in agility training or stroll through a tunnel of vendors.
For Amherstburg's Katie McEvoy and three-year-old Yellow Lab Charlie, each spring means another opportunity to compete in dock diving.

One by one, dogs take a running leap off a platform and into a pool, competing to see who can jump the furthest.
'A lot of people do it for competition, we do it for fun. She loves to swim, I don't care if she does well or not, we just like to do it,' McEvoy said.
The Woofa-Roo Pet Fest continues in Amherstburg on Sunday.
