Dogland is a homegrown adventure built from grit, imagination, and a whole lot of hustle. Founder Alex Phillips didn't take outside investment — not because it wouldn't help, but because she refused to answer to anyone but the Doglanders themselves. No outside voices. No compromises. Just pure joy.

That means we're building this the hard way, and we need people who know how to make things.

Are you handy? Help us build. Seamstresses, carpenters, builders, tinkerers, whether your skills are mild or major, we could use them. Come help us craft the experience by hand.

Are you connected, or just willing to help us spread the word? Maybe you run a dog Facebook group, own a small pet business, just know everyone at the dog park, or are comfortable chatting with dog people. Reach out to help Dogland grow.

Can you spare 4 hours? Come volunteer. Join us Saturday, September 26th or Sunday, September 27th for the inaugural Austin Dogland and become part of the story from day one.

Together, let's build Dogland bigger, bolder, and more joyful.
