Purchase Tickets at www.dovelewis.org/petlandia
Castaway
1900 NW 18th Ave
Portland, Oregon
The Portland Beardsmen will be there, so will a pair of llamas and a bag piper! And don’t forget good eats from popular Portland food carts: KOi Fusion, PBJ Grilled, Lardo, Savor the Chill and Pour Pour Coffee. A llama kissing booth, a beat my beard contest, a prize wheel and raffle, mustaches and beards on a stick (in case you don’t have your own), and more fun than you can shake a tail at are all part of the festivities at Petlandia hitting the Castaway event space in the Pearl this Saturday.
All proceeds from this unique event that celebrates our eclectic, fair city and the animals that enrich our lives benefit DoveLewis, the Northwest’s nonprofit 24-hour emergency & ICU animal hospital! A $25 ticket gets you entry into this Portland-esque carnival of fun and includes two scrumptious drinks poured by My Bartender.
Online registration for Petlandia closes on Thursday, March 7 at 5PM. But don’t fret, in true, last-minute Portland fashion, you can purchase tickets (space permitting) at the door the night of the event!
Can’t make it to the event? At least do your civic duty and like the Petlandia Facebook page! Sponsor, Boldtrek, Inc. will donate $1 for every like up to 1000 likes to DoveLewis! Your support is just a click away!





















I want to kiss a llama! My boyfriend won’t mind!
My girlfriend really wants to kiss a llama for some reason. I don’t mind.
I don’t have a pet anymore (died of old age) :-( but would love to give back to the pet community and support this event.
I love my pets, love DoveLewis, love kissing llamas.
I have a dog and a cat and would love to support this event! Sounds so much fun! And kissing llamas? Heck ya!
Dove Lewis saved a cat of mine years ago, and helped me out financially when I was unable to cover all her medical costs. I’m still not rolling in the moneybags, but I’d love to show up and show my support for this fantastic program!!
Dove Lewis saves lives. Mustaches+Llams= LLamustapahlooza! Woot! Woot!
I want to pet all the fuzzy things!
I would love to attend because I love pets!!!! please:-)
My date for the evening is standing me up because she can’t afford the tickets. But if I win *free tickets* I won’t be alone! Please please please!
I’d like to enter the beard contest. And I like animals.
Sounds like fun! I would like to join in.
Animals!
Bring on the llama love!
Love the furry beasts!!!
I wanna kiss a llama, sooo bad
Are we allowed to bring pets to the event??? Either way, I would love to go!!
Bring on the llamas! :-)
I made a mustache out of my dog’s tail.
I’ve been waiting most of my life to kiss a llama. make my dreams come true, PDF Pipeline!
I’ve been waiting most of my life to kiss a llama. make my dreams come true, PDX Pipeline!
So last December after living in PDX for 4 years, I unfortunately had to make use of Dove Lewis’ services for the first time for my 14 year old lab-chow, Foxy. As you can imagine, it’s never super rad to visit, and went two days in a row. BUT the second day they examined Foxy again free of charge, and all throughout that week as I was nursing her back to heath, their peeps calmed me down over the phone and gave me all kinds of free advice when I thought I’d lose my little old lady.
Dove Lewis really is a lifesaver and we’re lucky they’re in P-town. Did you know they even have a dog and cat blood bank?
Foxy is still a little wonky after the episode that brought her in there, but she’s happy and so much better. I’ve since vowed to have more fun and appreciate each day, and I really can’t think of a better way than BEARDS ON A STICK!
Thanks PDX Pipeline!
Oh my god! I almost cried reading your comment!!!! You should win :) I heart DoveLewis!!
Thanks Kate! I did! :D
Every pet needs a vet; This, we know, is truth.
Well, Dove Lewis, you can work through us by providing a llama booth!
He may spit like a viper but, just listen to the piper and eat some food from the carts.
Sure, he may get a bit randy (our friend from the Andes) but by kissing he sure does his part!
This event is not about the furry mammal whose lips might get even randier
Its about the pets of this fine kingdom and their Ollamacare here in Petlandia.
I’m an experienced llama kisser.
the only thing this event is missing is the B52′s. I would like to show up to represent!
I wanna pet the llama… we’ll see where it goes. And I’ll buy a lot of raffle tickets!
Dove Lewis is a great resource for our community and I would love to attend the event to support them. Pets truly enrich our lives!
I’ve never had to go to Dove Lewis (and would like to keep it that way) but I’d like to support them.
I have never kissed a llama.
I had to use a similar service when my dog got hit by a car, in school and broke…it is time to pay back the thoughtful and amazing work these folks do for our community.
I’m ready to make out with a llama!
This will be an awesome event. I would love to go”
How have I lived my whole life without kissing a llama? I think that needs to be remedied.
Shut up, I want to go to and if I win, that’s more money I can donate to Dove Lewis. I’d bring my dog park friends!!!
Sounds llamarific! Can I go?
Would like to go out to show so support.
My husband would be in 7th heaven if he could go.
I hope the llama is ready, I am conditioning my lips as I type. And the bf-he has a spectacular beard.
I love animals, I love beards, and I love food. This day is the best one I can even think of.
My husband and I have need of a good night out! We are in dire need or some fun.
Sounds like a typical Portland event. Viewers of the TV show don’t realize this is how it really is which is why we love Porland.
I am a big supporter of Dove Lewis. Would love to continue.
Oh pretty pleeeese? Dove’s a great cause, and the event sounds like so much fun! (does the llama do autographs?)
