To celebrate the return of AFL to Ballarat in 2021, the City of Ballarat, in partnership with the Western Bulldogs, is bringing back the ‘Bull-Doggie-Do’ event.

Ballarat’s four-legged bulldogs, and their owners, are invited to Ballarat’s fourth Bull-Doggie-Do event on Easter Saturday, April 3 – a free event which showcases and celebrates bulldogs. 

The Bull-Doggie-Do will be held at the Bridge Mall from 10.30am until midday. 

This year’s Bull-Doggie-Do will feature a series of activities for the whole family, including a ‘best dressed bulldog’ competition, spot prizes, photo booth with a pet photographer and a Western Bulldogs marquee, all hosted at the Bridge Mall Easter edition farmer’s market.

Owners are required to pre-register their bulldog on Eventbrite with registration packs provided to their first 60 dog registrations. Event sponsors Pedigree and Central Highlands Water have assisted with the coordination of the event. 

City of Ballarat Councillor and former Mayor Samantha McIntosh will be in attendance, and will act as a judge for the best-dressed competition.
