Hey Everyone!
If you love taking your dog to events, then October is the month for you. Whether you're looking for low cost vaccinations or just a fun Halloween event, there's something for everyone. So get out there and enjoy the beautiful weather and all the great events.
YAPPIE HOUR
Yappie Hour is every Tuesday from 5pm-7pm. It's an excellent way to meet other dogs and dog owners in a small scale setting! Come enjoy great specials and fun themes.
Tuesday, October 5th - World Animal Day. World Animal Day is intended as a day of celebration for anyone in the world who cares about animals. We figured, what better way to celebrate caring about your dog than to have a special on treats? Tonight, all treats are 50% OFF from 5-7pm! Show your dog they're loved.
Tuesday, October 12th - Squirrel Awarness Night. Did you know that Squirrel Awareness Week is October 10th-16th? Save a squirrel tonight, come by and get your dog a cookie substitute for the fluffy guy on the fence. Every dog who comes in the store gets a free squirrel and squirrels to take home are HALF PRICE.
Tuesday, October 19th - Adopt a Shelter Dog Celebration. The month of October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month. In honor of all the great shelter dogs awaiting forever homes, we'll donate a treat to the Humane Society for every treat purchased from 5pm-7pm tonight. So come in and Buy One, Give One!
Tuesday, October 26th - Halloween Yappie Hour. Get your spooky spirit all warmed up in advance! We have a gift basket valued at $50 for the best costume that we see tonight! So bring in your dog in their costume, whether it's spooky or sweet, for a chance to win! Plus, get the employee discount on all Halloween Treats, Toys & Costumes tonight!
