What: Little Rock Animal Village Fall “Paw-ty”
When: November 12, 2011 – 10:00 – 2:00
Where: Little Rock Animal Village – 4500 Kramer Street

The Little Rock Animal Village will have its annual Fall “Paw-ty” on November 12th from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at their facility at 4500 Kramer Street. The “Paw-ty” is great way to celebrate the opening 4 years ago of this state of the art facility. Mayor Mark Stodola will cut the birthday cake and make his remarks at 11:00.

This fun event includes the introduction of the LRAV Pet of the Year – “Rain” as well as a pet fashion show and parade. There will also be games and contests for pets and their owners as well as food and drinks. In addition, an education area will be available for pet owners who have questions and plenty of vendors will be there with handouts. Another highlight is the “Pet Portrait Studio” where owners can have pictures taken of their pets in an autumn setting or one with a Christmas theme.

The Little Rock Animal Village is the most progressive shelter in the state and is working non-stop to find forever homes for all kinds of pets. In 2011, the LRAV changed the lives of almost 1,900 pets by finding a new home for them or reuniting them with their owners.
