The Pittsburgh Pet Expo^[1] is a consumer pet trade show that takes place annually in mid-autumn at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States.

With an estimated 14,000 spectators^[2] during the three days, the Pittsburgh Pet Expo is the second largest consumer pet trade show in the United States,^[3] covering over 2.5 acres of indoor space. The event originated in 2004.^[4] The event is highlighted by the annual Pet Olympics, which includes the International Judges Association (IJA) sanctioned Rescue Me Rodeo Grooming Competitions, Dock Diving,^[5] National Dachshund Races, and various agility competitions.

The event hosts roughly 250 local and national exhibitors and over 30 Animal Rescue Groups. In addition to the exhibits of pet-related products and services, the event hosts various types of entertainment and other hands-on activities.^[6] Dogs comprise most of the pets accompanying owners, but cats, birds, lizards, and other animals also participate.^[7]
