Spooky Tails is an outdoor autumn gathering in Apex designed for dogs and their owners to celebrate the season together. The event features local pet vendors offering treats and resources, educational information about dog-friendly parks in the area, and organized group walks along the local trails. If you plan to go, make sure to dress your dog in their finest Halloween costume to enter the contest for a chance to win a prize. This gathering is best suited for socialized, leashed dogs and children of all ages who know how to interact safely with pets. Admission to the event is free, though you may want to bring card or cash for vendor purchases. This event makes a wonderful midweek outing because it combines outdoor exercise with a festive holiday theme. It gives kids a chance to show off the family pet, burn off some energy on the trails, and connect with other local dog lovers in a relaxed setting.
