Our Texas Wienerfest is on Saturday, September 21st at Central Machine Works in East Austin! The event will feature Oktoberfest food specials, vendors, drink specials, dog portraits, and more! It will also be a benefit for the Central Texas Dachshund Rescue.

🦴🍺 OUR VENDORS: We’re excited to have some amazing local businesses joining us for the event! Be sure to stop by their booths to see what they have cooking :)

We’ll be partying from 11am-2pm, but be sure to stick around until 2:15pm - that's when we'll do the group photo 📸

Ready to go? Please head to the form below to RSVP ↓ This will help us anticipate how many dogs will be in attendance. You can also sign up for dog portraits and order your event tee below (we’ll have a cute photo setup for your pups to pose in). Looking forward to seeing y’all there!

RSVP HERE!


Reserve your portrait spot

ONLINE ADVANCED BOOKINGS ARE AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED TIME! PORTRAIT SPOTS MAY BE PURCHASED ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT PENDING AVAILABILITY.

During the event, we’ll have a photo booth set up for dog photos (all dogs can participate). The event is free to attend but if you’d like to have your dog photographed during the event, please reserve a spot. Some walk-in appointments may be available if they do not sell out.

Included in your purchase will be a short “photoshoot” in our photo booth. People are welcome to be in the photos. You’ll receive 1-10 digital files emailed to you 24-48hrs after the event. Each dog will need a separate photo spot and we will not be photographing dogs together (unless a person is in the photos with the dog). Appointments are booked in 20min slots and you’re welcome to have your dog photographed anytime within 20min of your appointment. If you have any questions, feel free to email us! hello@zilkerbark.com

Refund Policy: A 100% refund is available within 48hrs of purchase. Due to the time-sensitive nature of our events, we do not offer refunds after 48hrs unless the event is canceled. Appointments are transferable.
