Calverton, NY - September 28, 2016 - Kent Animal Shelter’s annual Wines & Canines was held Sunday, September 25 at the Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard in Calverton. More than 200 pet owners/lovers attended, most with their four-legged best friends, and some came out just to walk, enjoy and show their support. Contests, prizes and raffles added to the fun.
The event was a huge success raising over $29,000 for the Kent Animal Shelter's programs to help homeless animals.
"Thanks to our wonderful friends and supporters, Wines & Canines has become an instrumental event that helps to fund our rescue program that removes animals from crisis situations and gives them a second chance for a new life,” said Pam Green, Kent Animal Shelter's Director.
