Frequently Asked Questions

Is Your Dog Right for this Event?

Yes, if your dog:

Is old enough to be around other dogs and people (at least 4 months of age)
Is up to date on all required vaccinations
Is in relatively good health and can walk up and down several flights of stairs
Does well on-leash and is not overly aggressive toward other dogs
Is friendly toward humans and not excessively fearful
Is a Sooners fan!

Probably not, if your dog:

Is still too young to mix with a big crowd (under 4 months)
Is a senior dog that would have trouble navigating stairs and being outside for an extended period of time;
Has aggressive tendencies towards other dogs or humans while on-leash
Is exhibiting any signs of illness close to the day of the game (ie, cough, nasal discharge, lethargy, diarrhea, etc). These symptoms can be signs of potentially infectious illnesses and it would probably be best for your dog as well as the other dogs in attendance, if they did not attend.
