BOW WOW SOCIAL HOUR
for the month of July will be held only on
Saturday the 10th, 17th and 24th from 2:00 - 4:00pm.
Sorry we are not holding them on the first Wed. & third Thurs. of the month.

We will have treats for the dogs and snacks and
drinks for the owners.  We will also have a free raffle.
The social hours ranged in many breeds of dogs.  We have teacup dogs to Mastiffs and Great Danes.
We have have had as few as 3 and as many as 20 dogs.
If you would prefer to donate anything such as a basket, gift certificate, etc.,
please feel free to give me a call so I can put you on the website for the upcoming
Social Hour.  We would love to give you free advertising also.  Donations for
raffle does not need to be dog related.  We also will have in the future trainers and
groomers that will come in and be there for the time of the Social Hour to
give free advice and answer questions on anything related to their field.
We hope you can come and join us at one of our Socials.

Our very first social hour was great.  We had over 25 dogs comes to visit and it gave
them a chance to finally play and mingle since the weather has been so bad.
The owners had a great time too.  Hope to see you at the next one.

*Only dogs and owners that are well socialized and happy to be around others are welcome into the store for shopping and the Social Hour.  Please NO dogs in heat and only dog that are up with their shots and vaccines.

Space Coast War Dog Association
        
We currently have a jar to help raise money for the Military Dogs that are over in Iraq.  They are in need of paw, ear and eye wipes, treats, toys, etc.  We would like to help by raising money and then purchasing what is needed.  We would then donate the items to the  Space Coast War Dogs Association for them to be able to send the items to them.  These dogs are fighting to protect us, so please help us raise money for things they need to make them more comfortable in doing it.  Thank you for your continuing help and support, they so greatly appreciate it.
