HOWL-O-WEEN PARTY 

Join us on Sunday October 12th from 10am-1pm at the Oak Grove Pavilion at the Brecksville Metroparks for our annual Howl-o-ween party!  

Get ready for a spooktacular Halloween event that promises fun for everyone, including our furry friends! This year's celebration will feature an exciting costume contest where attendees can showcase their most creative and eerie outfits. Don’t forget to dress up your dogs too, as there will be a special segment just for them with prizes for the best-dressed pups! The event will also include thrilling raffles with fantastic prizes up for grabs. Portraits by Martha will also be on hand to take photos of your pooch.  Whether you're aiming to win the contest, hoping to get lucky in the raffle, or just looking to enjoy some Halloween spirit, this event is the perfect way to celebrate the season. Bring your family, friends, and pets for a memorable evening filled with laughter, creativity, and community.

This event is open to the public and all dog-friendly dogs are welcome.  (all dogs must be on a leash, no flexi’s please).  Registration is open now until Wednesday October 8th.  Tickets are just $25 each and include a boxed breakfast and doggie ice cream for the pooches.  Tickets can be purchased HERE

 We are also hosting an online raffle of the coveted Golden Retriever Ghost Halloween Statue- this pup stands 2.5 ft tall with battery operated LED lights- it’s sure to make your front door stand out on the block!  Tickets are just $5 each and the winner will be announced via Facebook live at the Howl.  The winner does not need to attend the Howl.  Tickets can be purchased HERE.

Proceeds from this year’s Howl will go towards Mack, a 3.5-year-old boy who was relinquished to GRIN for having very bad hips.  Upon examination by our vet partner, it was determined he would need FHO surgery on to address both of his hips.  The estimated cost of both surgeries for Mack is over $6,000. Click HERE to sponsor.

We have several options available to help support Mack's cost of care:

As we quickly approach the anniversary of Gus' adoption, our family wanted to send a BIG thank you your way. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderfully supportive and dedicated group of people at GRIN.

Fostering has been a wonderful experience for me, 12 years and 56 dogs later! I like being a step in the process of moving dogs into permanent, loving homes.
