Pappy's Pet Lodge

We hope to make this a big fundraiser for BRAT. Invite all you know. Bring the family and your dogs. There is no entry fee. However, we will be holding a raffle. Tickets are $1 each and you can select which items where to place your tickets. (Scroll down to see a list of raffle items.) We accept cash and checks. We will try to take credit cards via Square. Also, there's a business next door that has an ATM machine. So, all our bases are covered!
We'll be holding a costume and howling contest. So, put on your thinker's cap and come up with good ideas for Fido! Start practicing with your bassets now to howl on cue. All dogs (not just BRAT dogs) are welcome IF 1. they are up-to-date on shots including the bordetella; 2. get along well in a crowded environment; and 3. have a handler for each dog. Contests are $10 per dog per contest.
We'll be holding a pawsome raffle! So, save your pennies for all the raffle tickets you can buy. You can put your tickets in the bowls for the item(s) you want the most. We take cash and checks.
