Kicking it with the Official Dog Toy of the LAFC

For the second consecutive season, ZippyPaws has had the privilege of partnering with the Los Angeles Football Club as the Official Dog Toy of the Black & Gold. This partnership has given ZippyPaws the opportunity to put our strong support behind Los Angeles’ premier soccer club and fans through pre-game LAFC Fan Fest activations, dog adoption events, and ZippyPaws Entitlement Nights at BMO Stadium. 

We just wrapped up the second ZippyPaws Entitlement Night of our partnership, so we thought you might like to have a look at what we’ve been up to so far during the LAFC’s 2025 season.

LAFC Fan Fests

Held on select match days at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, LAFC Fan Fests provide a place for fans to gather, tailgate, and enjoy festivities before the game. The LAFC Fan Fest events feature discounted drinks at the Black & Gold Cantina, sponsor games, prizes, live DJ music, and ZippyPaws, of course!

This year, fans of the Black & Gold who visited our ZippyPaws booth were treated to games, photo ops, and more. Of course, no ZippyPaws activation is complete without our awesome dog toy giveaways! This season, we’ve handed out hundreds of toys to the many fans who participated in our family friendly fun and games.

This season’s giveaways included the LAFC Fan Fest exclusive Black & Gold Donutz toy, as well as the plush SportsBallz Soccer Ball, and the very popular AirTuff® Soccer Ball. We truly hope LAFC fans and their pets have enjoyed getting these half as much as we have enjoyed giving them away!

ZippyPaws x LAFC Entitlement Night

For this year’s ZippyPaws Entitlement Night, our amazing team arrived early to host a very special activation alongside our partner rescue for the evening, Pups Without Borders. LAFC fans were welcomed to hop into an enclosure to meet a group of pups that were available for fostering or adoption on site. After meeting the pups, fans could choose a dog to pose with in front of our ZippyPaws photo booth, whereupon they were gifted with a SportsBallz Soccer Ball, colorful stickers, and a promotional discount for our black and gold AirTuff® Soccer Ball.

In addition to the pre-game activation, fans who attended the game were treated to a ZippyPaws sponsored evening inside BMO Stadium, where they also received a branded ZippyPaws x LAFC 2025 “LA Strong” dog scarf.

Not only were LAFC fans treated to a special ZippyPaws pre-game activation, but star players from the Los Angeles Football Club were also greeted by some of the adorable, adoptable pups from our partners at Pups Without Borders.

Much appreciation goes out to LAFC players and staff, Pups Without Borders and volunteers, the Black & Gold fans and Supporter Groups, and everyone else who made this event possible. We value you more than you can imagine. Thank you for everything. See ya next time!
