This unique gala stands out because it allows your pet to enjoy the evening with you. In addition to the red carpet pet parade, your four-legged friend can partake in pup-friendly passed hors d’oeuvres and a special Mutt-ini Bar. The event is Black Tie optional, for both humans and pets.

Tickets are on sale now, $135 per person and $45 per pet. Proceeds support animal welfare and humane education in our community. For additional information visit the Peninsula SPCA website.
