Many consumers with good intentions often fall short in their attempts to find a quality purebred puppy or dog. Even worse, many consumers are not fully aware of the inherent characteristics of a given breed, which can lead to an unsatisfying ownership experience. I LOVE DOGS EXPO (ILDE) demystifies the process for consumers by bringing the best dog resources, products and service providers in the Southwest together under one roof.

ILDE is a great opportunity for vendors to introduce themselves to high-quality prospects in a fun, supportive atmosphere. Speakers and sports teams can gain recognition and acquire consulting clients while practicing their crafts. And sponsorship opportunities offer valuable branding space for mainstream suppliers.

Vendors will mingle with breeders, responsible rescue organizations and each other in a bustling bazaar environment. Speakers will conduct demonstrations and lectures at one end of the hall, while sports teams will perform outside in a country setting.

Because of ILDE’s focus on responsible vendors with high standards, attendees are expected to be upper income, proactive learners, and eager buyers.

The wealth of knowledge available from experienced animal care businesses is one of the greatest resources for any dog owner. The event’s theme of responsible pet care is clearly demonstrated by seminars presented by veterinarians, trainers and groomers on both Saturdays and Sundays on topics such as training, how to choose a quality dog or puppy, grooming and health.

The experience of I LOVE DOGS EXPO is intended to inspire any visitor to meet and get acquainted with the vendors, speakers and dog breeders, and return to ILDE for their continuing dog needs.
