One of the Best Gifts! Adopting a Homeless Pet.

Pets for Adoption at Pino Gelato

 

Come by Pino Gelato this coming Saturday from 12pm to 2pm to meet our four-legged friends from the Hilton Head Humane Association.

Volunteers will pick up dogs and cats from the shelter to take them on a little field trip to Pino Gelato in the Village at Wexford, hoping to meet new adopters and find a forever home!

Not quite ready for a(nother) pet yet?

Consider volunteering your time and love to take a dog or cat to the event and relax, while enjoying free coffee, iced coffee drinks or fruit spritzers!

Contact us or Laura Tipton, adoption facilitator at the Hilton Head Humane Association (843 681 8680) , for more information.

 

Yes, we are taking turns! Last Saturday we went to the Humane Association shelter for the Children’s books drive held by Friends of the Library of Hilton Head. All books were collected by the Marines for the Toys for Tots program.

Pets on The Promenade

Last Saturday turned out to be the perfect day for Pets on the Promenade in Bluffton, South Carolina because it was a bit overcast and thus not too hot to have the cats and dogs outside.



This annual event aims at promoting adoption of homeless pets and it worked: 8 dogs went home with their new family!!

"Ruff life"!

Love that shot

 Many local animal shelters and rescue groups were present, along with main sponsor Hilton Head Monthly and pet-friendly vendors to help raise funds for the Hilton Head Humane Association and Palmetto Animal League.

 

Making sure the gelato is ready!

 Pino Gelato set up its portable shop on the promenade to offer gelato and sorbetto for donations . It turns out not only humans but also dogs love a cold treat!

"Lemon" enjoyed some Limoncello sorbetto

  Add some live music by the Beagles, covering songs from the Beatles, a silent auction full of great items and gift certificates, "Titan's Tale" book signing by local author Julie Chalpan and that's all you need for an afternoon of fun and relaxing time!

 

Already looking forward to next year's Pets on The Promenade... woof!
