Nosh and Mush (well, maybe) at HAWS!
This Saturday, HAWS again joins in the fun of Waukesha's Jan-Boree with "Cool Your Paws at HAWS" - a fest for people and their pets!
Join in the fun of Waukesha Jan-Boree with HAWS at "Cool Your Paws at HAWS II" - this Saturday, January 19, from 11:00am to 3:00pm!
We'll have a Shelter Scavenger Hunt and coloring contest for kids, and Hotdog Bobbing and the Peanut Butter Lick-Off for pets! Enjoy treats for the whole family, meet adoptable pets, "hang" with HAWS’ mascot Lucky, and enter the raffle for a flat screen TV and firepit.
Pets are DEFINITELY welcome!! Those pets joining in the fun should be secured in a carrier or on a 6' leash for safety.
