MobilityDog is excited to invite the community to A.R.F.! 2025 @Poodle Palooza. A.R.F.! will be a unique event that focuses on accessibility, empowerment, and FUNctional independence for individuals with disabilities and the elderly. This day promises connection, education, and excitement while highlighting the importance of mainstreaming disabilities and fostering inclusivity for all abilities. In honor of those who lost their lives in the Eaton Canyon Fires, MobilityDog will host workshops at A.R.F.! finding SOLUTIONS FOR: Evacuation Readiness and Safety for All for all disasters.
A.R.F!—which stands for Accessibility Resource Fair, a Fun-filled Event—is filled with engaging activities for everyone. Attendees can meet Service Dog Teams and Service Pups-in-Training, No Limit Wall, ride hand-pedal tricycles, explore accessible spaces, and enjoy creative art-making opportunities. The event will also feature popular food trucks like Fat Boys and Sure Good Soft Serve Ice Cream, adding a sweet treat to this inspiring day of adventure and learning.
As a nonprofit dedicated to advancing FUNctional Independence for individuals with disabilities and the elderly through service dogs, education, and empowerment, MobilityDog is thrilled to bring this impactful event to life. A.R.F! celebrates the achievements of people with disabilities and creates an inclusive space where everyone can thrive as we find solutions for the best life.
"Thanks to my experience at the No Limit Wall in 2024, I now have the opportunity to rock climb twice a month. I love ringing the bell at the top of the wall!" shares MobilityDog’s founder. This event embodies the spirit of growth and progress, bringing together individuals who are passionate about supporting and empowering one another.
A.R.F! is more than just fun; it’s about making a meaningful impact. It’s a chance for the community to learn, celebrate, and create lasting memories while discovering tools that enhance independence and accessibility.
