First birthday parties and pups?
They're a truly big thing, for many people.
Either you're buying your baby barker a special made-for-dogs dessert for his own first birthday, or you've created a dog-focused theme for your human tot's first big bash, down to the cute tablecloth, plates, and napkins.
What if, though, you could go to a first birthday party and possibly meet a pooch you'll want to live with forever and always?
It feels like the perfect match-up, between tail-waggers and a major milestone, and the ideal way to mark a first birthday.
Which is just what Wags & Walks will do on the afternoon of Sunday, Jan. 27.
Local
Get Los Angeles's latest local news on crime, entertainment, weather, schools, COVID, cost of living and more. Here's your go-to source for today's LA news.
The animal-loving organization, which actively seeks to match rescue hounds with loving homes, is marking the first year of its West LA adoption center with a buoyant bash.
One that will include, you got it, chances to meet, fall for, and possibly adopt a whiskery new pumpkin of the most poochful sort.
A photo truck and giveaways are also on the roster, so once you've nuzzled several pups, and said a warm "hey" to others, and you've downed a rootbeer float (thanks to Margo's Bark Soda Co.), best snap a pic and see if you score something cool.
It's all free to join, this Fido-cheerful fest.
And, good to know?
Actually, scratch that. What's absolutely great to know? Over 1,100 pups were "saved last year," says Wags & Walk. That's beyond nice, and definitely worth a party.
So be there, from noon to 4 o'clock, to meet dogs, hobnob with animal aficionados, and enjoy a root beer float, all on a warm-ish January Sunday.
Good idea, though, beforehand? Do take a second to RSVP.
