The 19th Annual Steve and Cookie’s Dog Show and Contest will be held on Sunday, September 27th at 1 p.m. in conjunction with Margate’s Fall Funfest. This fall event has become a Jersey Shore tradition and Steve and Cookie’s Dog Show is, once again, proud to be a signature part of the festivities.

There will be something for everyone: a demonstration from Atlantic City’s K-9 Unit at noon, judged events and pet prizes. Lots of food and music will be available in the parking lot, so grab lunch and enjoy Margate’s Funfest before and after the show.
Pooped out from Funfest and dog show? Well-mannered, leashed pooches and patrons are invited to kick back and grab a cocktail inside Steve and Cookie’s Oyster Bar during and after the Dog Show.
