Leashed & Local Colorado Springs

05/27/2026

🫶🏼 I’ve been spending the week hand-making little doggie gift bags for the FIRST 400 attendees at Leashed & Local and I’m honestly so excited for you guys to see them 🐾

Every bag is packed with treats and fun surprises for your pups because this event is all about celebrating our local dog-loving community while supporting rescue organizations here in Colorado Springs.

Bring your dogs, shop local vendors, meet adoptable pups, maybe adopt 1 or 2, grab some food, and come hang out with us for an amazing day ☀️🐶

We cannot wait to see everyone there! 🩵
Your Hosts,
Courtney Gibbs & Jásmine LeClair

🏡🐾 Vendor Spotlight: Ryan Yeates with Loan Haus 🐾🏡
Mortgage talk… but explained so simply even the dog gets it 😅
Ryan with Loan Haus will be hanging out at Leashed & Local helping answer questions and breaking down the home buying process in a way that actually makes sense, whether you’re curious about VA loans, assumables, monthly payments, or just don’t know where to start.
And yes… Oliver will be there too 🐶🫶🏼

One of my favorite things about Ryan is that he genuinely takes time to educate people without making them feel overwhelmed or pressured.

✨ Vendor Spotlight: Pet Wants COS Briargate
Meet Jerrod, Kariann, and their adorable crew: Suzie, Luna, Ruby, and Sherman 🐾

Pet Wants COS Briargate was built from a deeply personal journey after their dog Ruby struggled with severe allergies and they couldn’t find answers. That experience inspired them to create a business focused on helping other pet owners find healthier, more natural options for their pets ❤️

They specialize in:
🐶 Fresh small-batch kibble made 8 times a year
🦴 Natural & organic treats and chews
🐱 Wellness-focused nutrition for dogs AND cats

They even call themselves the “Whole Foods of the pet world” and honestly… we love that 😂✨

Even more impressive? They’ve been open less than a year and already won 🥈 Silver for Best Pet Store in the Springs!
AND they have a storefront coming soon 👏

Be sure to stop by their booth at Leashed & Local and show them some love! 🐾

Leashed & Local Colorado Springs is not a business, it’s truly a passion project.

What started as a love for event planning and supporting our community has grown into something really special. We bring together dog-friendly vendors, help organize local events, and create spaces where people, pups, and small businesses can connect.

We also use these events to raise money for local rescues, because supporting animals in our community will always be close to our hearts.

Our very first event welcomed 27 incredible vendors and an amazing turnout of dog lovers, it honestly felt like a farmers market made just for dogs and the people who adore them.

If you love supporting local, meeting great vendors, and spending time with your four-legged best friend… you’ll fit right in with us.

Always - Courtney Gibbs & Jásmine LeClair 🩵🐾🐶
