Set against Pocheon Art Valley, where beautiful natural scenery and art come together, the festival offers various participatory programs, including 'Meongpossible', a challenge undertaken with pet dogs, 'Art Valley Healing Forest Trekking', a walk with pet dogs, dog Pilates, a dog Olympics, and a pet etiquette Golden Bell quiz. It also provides a special festival setting for both pet owners and people without pets through a dog playground, various hands-on booths, cultural performances, and events. Through various activities with pet dogs, this festival aims to offer special memories and enjoyment away from everyday life while raising awareness of a proper understanding of companion animals and the importance of responsible pet ownership, and spreading the values of respect for life and animal welfare. Furthermore, by providing opportunities for pet owners and people without pets to understand and communicate with one another, it aims to improve positive perceptions of companion animals and contribute to establishing a responsible companion animal culture in which people and animals coexist harmoniously.
