The 2024 MGK-9 Dog Fest Was Amazing Yet Again

The 2024 MGK-9 Dog Fest was a huge success!

I often ask myself, “What is the greatest combination of things in the world,” and oftentimes it comes down to two things — dogs and music.

Well, this weekend, I got to combine the two, and it added up to an amazing day.

A little tunes provided by MGK, dogs galore, and a great spring day.

What more could you ask for?

Just like in years past, the 2024 MGK-9 Dog Fest was held over the weekend at Green Lake Park in Towamencin Township.

For those unfamiliar, Towamencin Township is in Upper Montgomery County.

The MGK-9 Dog Fest continues to be a great event that we do on a yearly basis here at MGK.

The whole purpose of the event is to help support animal shelters and rescues all over the Delaware Valley.

So a bunch of people come out and set up tents where people can go and get information and how to support each cause.

Plus, a ton of food and drink vendors come out, so the crowd doesn’t go hungry.

Oh, and how could I forget the best part?

A ton of listeners and great people come out, with their four-legged friends to enjoy the event!

This year I got to host the Simon Says Contest with dog owners and their dogs.

I have to say, we had some pretty obedient dogs this year.

They listened to pretty much every command — it was incredible.

I want to send a big thank you to our leaders Eric Johnson and Kara Lester, who made everything work like magic at this year’s MGK-9 Dog Fest.

Funnily enough, I came really, really close to adopting a puppy, but my wife’s voice kept ringing in my ear, “Don’t you dare!”

Well, there’s always next year!

Looks like I have some convincing to do, and if you missed it, hopefully, I’ll see you at next year’s MGK-9 Dog Fest!

I thought the MGK-9 Dog Fest was strictly for dogs, but it looks like a lion made its way to the event. What a funny dog costume.

Not only did a lion make an appearance, but apparently a peacock did as well! I felt like I was at the Philadelphia Zoo.

Our leader here at MGK, Eric Johnson. He was chatting it up with an MGK listener named Paul.

Look at these beauties. There were so many great looking dogs at the event.

Even when the weather is not the best, our listeners still show up. Big thanks to everyone who made it out to the MGK-9 Dog Fest despite the weather.

Bonnie and her Dynamo Dogs. They put on a fun show every year at the event. So talented.

Rita's was nice enough to come out to the event. What is your favorite flavor of water ice?

Embers was one of the vendors at the event. They have some of the best barbecue food around.

Crooked Eye Brewing provided some adult beverages at the event. They have some great beer.

If you have never had a Mr. Sticky's sticky bun, then you are missing out. Just writing about it has me craving one.

The famous MGK Tent. Whenever you see this you know some good tunes are around. Maybe some swag too!
