Calling all Tripawds who can make it to Austin, Texas this fall — your moment in the spotlight has arrived! The incredible team at Violet Crown Veterinary Specialists is hosting the very first Violet Crown Para-Pet Games, and they want YOUR three-legged superstar to shine there.

You Can Represent the Tripawds Community at the Para-Pet Games!
This is a one-of-a-kind celebration of specially-abled dogs. Every Tripawd, blind pup, deaf dog, cancer survivor, and mobility warrior is welcome and wanted for the games.
Dogs of all sizes, ages, and abilities are invited to compete, cheer, and show the world that being different is absolutely beautiful.
And here’s the best part: every single Para-Pet competitor goes home with a participation medal.
Proceeds go to a great cause
One big reason we’re so excited about this event is the heart behind it. Violet Crown has an emergency fund dedicated to pet parents who can’t cover the costs of surgery and treatment at their clinic.
Every entry fee, donation, and sponsorship from the Para-Pet Games goes directly toward keeping that fund alive for families who need it most.
Can’t make it to Austin? You can still be part of the magic by making a donation!
Mark Your Calendar and Bring the Whole Pack!
The inaugural Violet Crown Para-Pet Games takes place on October 24, 2026 at the fantastic Jester King Brewery (13187 Fitzhugh Rd, Austin, TX 78736).
