Looking for a Howling Good Time?
This weekend, there is no shortage of Halloween-themed
events for your pooch if you are in the Asheville area. I have detailed all of them on the Event
Calendar page of our site, www.rescuepetsrule.com.
Happy Halloween (a few days early)!

Re-Tail Store Grand Opening & 3rd Anniversary Celebration
Tomorrow is a big day for Brother Wolf. It is the third anniversary of the adoption center’s opening. The group has been around longer; they did not always have an official shelter.
It is also the grand opening of their new Re-Tail Store. The store is located across the street from the shelter. If you are familiar with the area, it is in the building where the previous tenant had all those nasty “keep the pets away” signs. Karma.
The party is from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. You can tour the shelter and enjoy free refreshments and nail trims (for your buddy, not you). At the Second Chances Thrift Store (just up the street), select items will be 30 percent off.
Proceeds from the new Re-Tail Store and the Second Chances Thrift Store provide much-needed funds to Brother Wolf. Remember, Brother Wolf does not receive any government assistance. They rely on community support and funds from ventures like these.
You can learn more about the grooming services they will offer at the Store. In fact, you might want to take a peek. Visit the shelter’s website at bwar.org and click on the Re-Tail Store and Grooming page. The prices are very reasonable. You must call for an appointment, though. The groomer only comes to the store when she has appointments.
If you are looking for something to do Saturday afternoon, drop by the shelter complex. The hard-working staff at BWAR has made some great improvements to the shelter. The new store is really nice.
Hope to see you there on Saturday!

Bele Chere Travel Tip
Bele Chere is a large street festival held in downtown Asheville. This year, the festival starts on Friday, July 29, and ends Sunday evening.
The festival always draws a very large crowd. While Asheville is generally very pet friendly, your pets are banned from the festival. Please be sure to leave your pet at home if you want to attend the event.
The organizers will have a “doggie jail” near the City’s jail where you could leave your pet. However, I really do not recommend it. The weather is always blazing hot this time of year. They set up misting stations at various points, if that gives you an indication.
And, like clockwork, we always have a terrible thunderstorm, almost every year, on Sunday afternoon. It is God’s way of washing away the grime, feces, and urine from the weekend event. (Can you tell how much we hate the festival?)
So, feel free to join in the “fun” of Bele Chere. Just leave your little buddy at home.
