Puppy Pals Live! will be returning to the Park Theater in McMinnville on Saturday, October 18 with two shows full of doggone fun at noon and 6 p.m.

“When Puppy Pals Live was here the last time, the show sold out so this time we’re offering two shows in one day,” explained Park Theater Assistant Manager Ashley Gillentine Wright.

“This show is perfect for families with kids, but it’s also really for anyone who likes to laugh and loves animals. The stunts, the comedy and the pups are so entertaining so I think just about anyone will enjoy. We’re looking forward to a full day of fun with the Puppy Pals crew here at the Park Theater!”

Tickets are $15 + tax for kids 12 and under and $30 + tax for those 13 and up. A Family Fun Pack is available for $75 + tax that includes tickets for 2 adults and 2 kids.

According to their website, the Puppy Pals Live! is “a family fun action-packed show where adopted and rescued dogs perform spectacular stunts and breathtaking feats” that’s “full of surprises and laugh-out-loud canine comedy.”

“We are truly looking forward to performing at the Park Theater again this year in McMinnville! It’s always a fantastic experience with a wonderful crowd, and we genuinely love coming back to the community,” said a representative for Puppy Pals Live!.

“We are especially excited to share our show with everyone this time because we have a totally new group of dogs joining us, bringing a fresh set of acts and tricks to the stage. We believe the audience will be thrilled with the new additions!”

This year’s shows will feature four-year-old standard poodle Rudy, five-year-old toy poodle Cash, three-year-old poodle mix Gizmo and one-year-old Jack Russell Chip.

Tickets can be purchased at the Park Theater box office at 115 W. Main Street in downtown McMinnville, by calling 931-506-2787, and online at mcminnvilleparktheater.com.
