6 The ultimate canine showdown is here! With live entertainment and plenty of dog-friendly fun, it’s a great day out for pet lovers and their four-legged friends. Gold Coast’s Next Top Dogel is a fun-filled community event celebrating our region’s most lovable, talented, and downright adorable dogs. From wagging tails to impressive tricks, local pups will take centre stage to compete for the title of “Gold Coast's Next Top Dogel.” Crowd favourites include the ever-entertaining Dachshund Dash, where speedy sausage dogs race for glory, and the vibrant Harmony Early Education Grand Parade. Best of all, anyone in attendance can join the action by strutting their stuff along the Dog Walk during the parade – and go in the draw to win an incredible prize: two nights at Hayman Island. Bring the whole family along for a great day out, featuring live entertainment, dog-friendly activities, market stalls and plenty of opportunities to meet fellow pet lovers. Whether your dog is a social butterfly, a trick master, or simply the cutest companion around, this is their chance to shine. Think your pup has what it takes? Enter the competition or come along to cheer on the contestants and enjoy the lively atmosphere. Don’t miss this paws-itively exciting event on the Gold Coast!
