OTN News & Upcoming Events
Thanks to all who came out to Bark in the Park, the Kickoff for Dogtoberfest, the Old Town North Community Partnership’s Celebration of all things Dog …and Cat. Throughout the month of October, we will be highlighting the work of local organizations that support animals in need.
One of these organizations is Who Will Let the Dogs Out. The organization transports animals from several overcrowded shelters in the south. Many thanks to the Veterinary Emergency Group for sponsoring Bark in the Park and Dogtoberfest with additional support from Laura of Grateful Pup.
Our friend Laura is donating sample packs and gift cards to folks who adopt a pup during Dogtoberfest.
