Nearly 300 canines descended on a Nevada water park for an event that broke Guinness World Record for the most dogs attending a dog pool party.

Sept. 29 (UPI) -- Nearly 300 canines descended on a Nevada water park for an event that broke Guinness World Record for the most dogs attending a dog pool party.

Doodlepalooza 2026, sponsored by We Love Doodles, gathered 296 poodle mixes and their families Sunday at the Cowabunga Canyon Vegas water park for a day of fun and swimming in the park's wave pool, splash pad and other shallow water areas.

A Guinness World Records adjudicator was on hand to confirm the event broke the record previously set by 277 dogs at a Florida park in a May event organized by Chewy.

The event, timed to coincide with National Dog Week, raised funds for Doodle Rescue USA.

"This record belongs to every dog and person who showed up for a larger purpose," Danielle Dunker of Doodle Rescue USA said in a statement provided to media outlets. "This gives hundreds of doodle families a chance to celebrate together while helping us raise awareness for the dogs who still need rescue, foster families and forever homes."
