Boooo!
Spooky, huh? As autumn gets into full swing, we at Roscoe Village Animal Hospital are gearing up for Halloween. It’s coming up so fast and I’m still not sure of my costume. This Dracula cape is nice but… I think I should be a lion this year, seeing as I am queen of the hospital.
This is a very exciting time of year for us and we have a big weekend of festivities coming up. Clear your calendars for October 16th & 17th! On October 16th we will be sponsoring the Howl O’ Ween Fundraiser & Adoption Event for Chicago Canine Rescue Foundation. Hosted by the wonderful people at Moonshine on 1824 W Division from 12pm to 4pm, this event is sure to be a blast. CCRF will have dogs available for adoption, the Dog Obedience Group (D.O.G.) will answer training questions and provide tips for working with your pooch, and we at RVAH will provide veterinary information and education! There will be free pumpkin carving, a pet costume contest at 2pm ($5 per entry), and professional pet photography. Entry is $10. Also, Moonshine will provide special $30 drink packages for all the beer, wine, and call drinks you want! Proceeds go toward CCRF so come help save some doggies!
Then on Sunday, October 17th, we’re throwing our Fifth Annual Halloween Bash right here in the hospital! There will be fun and games, treats and prizes for all ages! Tour our hospital and meet the staff. Be sure to bring your little critters (pets and kids)! There will be a Best Pet Costume Contest at 3pm, a silent auction, and on-site pet photography for $20. All proceeds will benefit the New Leash On Life Animal Rescue. The celebration runs 12pm-4pm so don’t miss it!
Join the party and support local animals in need! And don’t forget to wear your costumes. I’ll have mine!
