This Saturday comes with a twist at the Farmers Market. Alongside the local vendors and fresh finds you already love, dogs will be stepping into the spotlight with free contests running from 10 to 11 AM. Registration is quick and easy at the Downtown Bentonville Inc. booth on the Square, so anyone can get their pup in on the fun.

A panel of judges will be cheering on every canine contestant, from best dressed to funniest personality, making it just as fun for the crowd as it is for the dogs. Whether you’re entering your pup or just soaking up the tail wags from the sidelines, the whole morning blends market shopping with a true celebration of Bentonville’s dog-loving spirit.

Leash up, grab a coffee on the way, and head to the Square for a morning your pup will thank you for.
