Join us Friday, August 9th from 6-10pm!
Brunswick Barbecue and Brew
3925 Route 2, Brunswick, NY
Have we got a party planned for you! (Yes you, no dogs involved.) The occasion? To celebrate the success of Dog House Adoptions’ 1st year and our plan to help dogs going forward. You don’t have to adopt to keep us running strong. Come for the fun, support the rescue, and leave the heavy lifting to us!
The Who’s-its
6 PM: Gather ’round to grab your table, order some food, and get to know us!
7 PM: Steve Caporizzo from Pet Connection will share about how his Ohio puppy mill rescue missions change lives.
6-9 PM: Chat with volunteers from Dog House Adoptions and the Companion Animal Placement Program. Learn how dog rescue and fostering doesn’t just help dogs, it rescues people’s hearts.
8 PM-Close: Dance to folk rock favorites all night long from the Capital Region’s own Stray Dogs Band! Hear “PICK ME!” the original song written for Dog House Adoptions’ video – voted Best Video Finalist 2013 by DogTime Media!
The How’s-its
Freebies
The first 35 people in the door get a free 6-flavor-sampler “Doggy Bag” and a $5 coupon from The Honest Kitchen! Pet food from the Honest Kitchen is 100% human grade and meat sources are responsibly farm raised or wild caught. These GMO free, hormone free, antibiotic free whole foods are better than what most people eat, and people can too if so inclined!
