[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] An event where pet owners and their pets can enjoy an outing together will be held in Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City.

Gwangsan-gu announced on the 10th that it will hold the "Autumn Outing with Pets" event at the Deohagi Center, a remodeled closed school in Bonryang-dong, starting at 11 a.m. on the 13th.

In collaboration with Sallangga Cooperative, this event will feature a handmade pet supplies market, pet cupcakes, spray making, storytelling with pets, events such as "Gansin Two Hands Full," an outdoor pet cafe, and an illustration exhibition.

In particular, the pet supplies made by artisans are hard to find in mass-produced products, making them perfect as one-of-a-kind gifts for pets.

Additionally, the Gwangju City Animal Protection Association "With" will run a campaign for abandoned animals, including an adoption information booth, and the Doran Pet Behavior Correction Center will operate a pet behavior correction counseling center.

The Deohagi District Operation Council, composed of farmers from Bonryang-dong, will offer local beverage experiences, country-style kimbap, and jeon (Korean pancakes) making food experiences.

Hong Gi-eun, chairman of the Deohagi District Operation Council, said, "Through this first event, we plan to develop cultural events that pet owners and their pets can enjoy together in the future."

Meanwhile, according to COVID-19 quarantine guidelines, the number of people inside the venue is limited to 100, and food consumption is prohibited.

Dogs must wear leashes mandatorily, and for sensitive dogs, muzzles must be worn.
