HyCan 2025: Hyderabad’s Biggest Pet Show Begins Tomorrow
- Event to feature 500 dogs, 100 cats, and 80 fish varieties
- ‘Safe With Dogs’ and Canine Bravery Awards highlight welfare and courage
Hyderabad, November 7: The Hyderabad Canine Club has announced the launch of HyCan 2025, one of India’s largest and most loved pet events, set to bring together over 500 dogs, 100 cats, and thousands of animal lovers. The two-day celebration begins on November 8 and continues through November 9 at the OM Convention in Narsingi from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. With support from GHMC, Rashtra Raksha University, and the Kennel Club of India, the event is expected to attract more than 5,000 visitors.
HyCan 2025 is more than a pet show; it is a celebration of the human-animal bond and a platform promoting compassion, awareness, and responsible ownership. The event will showcase dog and cat competitions, an aqua zone featuring 80 to 100 species of fish, and an exhibition space for pet businesses offering innovative products and services. According to the organisers, this will be Hyderabad’s largest gathering of animals and pet lovers under one roof.
A major highlight of this year’s edition is the public awareness initiative “Safe With Dogs,” launched in collaboration with the Government of Telangana and GHMC. The campaign aims to make Hyderabad a dog-friendly city by reducing fear, building understanding, and encouraging responsible pet ownership. GHMC will invite pet-friendly cafés, shops, and establishments to attend educational workshops. Participants will earn GHMC-endorsed certificates and display “Safe With Dogs” stickers at their premises as a mark of their commitment. The program will run four times daily and will be inaugurated by the Hyderabad Collector.
Another unique feature of HyCan 2025 is the National Canine Bravery Awards, organised jointly by the Rashtra Raksha University (RRU) Commando K9 Academy and the Hyderabad Canine Club. The awards honour brave dogs from police and security forces across India. Selected stories of courage will be featured in HyMag, the event’s official magazine, and top canine heroes will be felicitated during the event in the presence of senior police and CPO dignitaries.
The weekend promises a host of engaging attractions, including all-breed championship dog shows judged by six international judges, a cat championship, and an aquatic display with rare fish. Grooming competitions, seminars, and workshops will also be held, offering interactive sessions for families and children. The organisers said HyCan 2025 will be an unforgettable weekend filled with love, learning, and laughter for every pet enthusiast.
