Pups and Pigskins Event to Benefit Kids and Canines
Dog-friendly event raises money for charity that works with at-risk youth.
Leash your friendly pup, dress him in his best football-themed attire and head out on Sunday October 14 to "Pups and Pigskins."
The event held from 2:00p.m.-5:00p.m. on Sunday at the Dale 1891 Gastro Pub will benefit Kids and Canines, a local non profit that helps at risk youth.
“We hope a lot of residents attend the Yappy Hour to benefit Kids and Canines since it is a local nonprofit in our backyard,” said Laura Fontanills, vice president for High Hopes in High Heels, who helped organize the event.
