National Xoloitzcuintle Day at Parque Canódromo Caliente

• When: Tuesday, October 27, 6:00 pm
• Where: Parque Canódromo Caliente, Caliente complex, Blvd. Agua Caliente 12027, Hipódromo
• Entry: Free (registration required)

Tijuana’s first National Xoloitzcuintle Day celebration takes over Parque Canódromo Caliente on Tuesday, Oct. 27, from 6 p.m., with speed races for dogs, a dog pool, agility and obedience classes, music and talks about the hairless Mexican breed, according to San Diego Red and Uniradio Informa (San Diego Red also lists canine yoga). Entry is free, but you have to register in advance with a QR code posted on the Xolos’ page and, per Uniradio, the Parque Canódromo and CMI.Dog pages. San Diego Red lists an 11 p.m. finish; Uniradio says 10 p.m.

Dogs must be on a leash, and aggressive dogs aren’t allowed. The reports differ on size: San Diego Red says no dogs over 25 kg, while Uniradio says organizers recommend dogs under 25 kg and require a restraint collar for those over 15 kg, so check the registration page. Neither report gave a street address; the Canódromo is part of the Caliente complex on Bulevar Agua Caliente. More in our story.
