Christmas Cheer Ain't Easy for Little Old Chihuahuas!

Merry Christmas from Mabel the 15year old Chihuahua and all the Witmers!
Mabel is having a traumatic holiday this year! The new puppy Milo was caught dragging Mable around like a pull-toy by Mabel's Christmas bandanna...
Then this morning Mabel got her back foot nail caught in the silver bell from her holiday collar...

Mark Your Calendars for Art Paws July 15th, 2012!

What is Art Paws?

The 12th annual Art Paws, part of Reno's Artown, is a PetFolio sponsored charity event. Art Paws donates all of the proceeds from the event to 3 non-profit animal organizations as chosen by PetFolio Magazine's, Reader's Choice Contest.

This, free admission, event is a walk through vendor event, held at McKinley Arts and Cultural Center at 925 Riverside Dr., Reno. It is the ONLY canine friendly event during Artown. Vendors consist of pet products and services, artists and artisans, non-profit animal organizations and various other consumer vendors.

If you are looking for a great bargain on some of the best items, services and products that are available in the Reno area, you will want to check out the Art Paws silent auction. Last year we had more that 75 fantastic items to offer to our attendees. In addition, don't forget to purchase several raffle tickets. Many of our vendors provide us with super raffle prizes as well.

Paw painting has long been one of our best loved attractions, bring out the Picasso in your pet, and take home a masterpiece. If your dog has a unique talent, is super cute or has a fantastic costume or trick, you'll want to sign them up for our "Canine Contests". Fabulous prizes for the winners.
