Bellevue Animal Hospital Halloween Trunk or Treat

October 5, 2025

SAVE THE DATE! Our spooktacular Halloween “Trunk or Treat” was a hit last year, so we’re hosting another event this year. Our cars and our crew will be looking forward to seeing all of YOU on Sunday, October 12th, from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m.! In addition to the trunks full of treats, we’ll have little pumpkins for your kids (or you) to paint; a rubber duck pond (pick a ducky and win a prize); and of course – a pet costume contest! Cats and dogs of all sizes are welcome to participate, and we look forward to seeing all of your adorable furbabies. We encourage pet parents (and human kids) to come in costume too, if you’d like to join the fun!

Start planning your pet’s costume now for a chance to win some sweet prizes, including a $25 gift certificate that you can use towards ANY veterinary service at our hospital: vaccinations, exams, nail trims, diagnostics, surgery, or dentals! Not to mention a big shout-out on our Instagram and Facebook pages!
