   Calling All Com-paw-dres - A pre-holiday dog party & fundraising event
   
   
   
   Join Bayou City Outdoors for our pre-holiday mix & mingle for people and pups alike. A great opportunity for the 4-leggers to get together before the hectic holiday season as we fetch some fine food and cool brews, all while hanging with friends and making new ones. Bring Fido or just come meet other people who love dogs!
   
   
   
   We’ll be meeting at Cottonwood, 3422 N. Shepherd, on their awesomely large (and dog-friendly) patio Sunday, November 17th from 2-4 PM.
   
   
   
   To get everyone into the spirit of giving, we will be doing a drawing benefitting the local non-profit organization: Barrio Dogs, Inc. Tickets to enter the drawing will be available to purchase at the event. Winners will be announced at 4 PM.
   
   
   
   Unable to attend this paws-itively awesome event?... Stay tuned to the Bayou City Outdoors website for additional ways to donate to and volunteer with Barrio Dogs this holiday season.
   
   
   
   *Barrio Dogs is a growing, grassroots, non-profit organization based in Houston, Texas with an emphasis on education and in raising awareness on proper animal care in the low-income communities.
