A PET'S WISH BENEFIT AT VAL VERDE WINERY.....

This cute, little mostly white dawg found her forever home last night. Not sure about the others as I left the event early.

The oldest winery in Texas...since 1883. It's in our 'hood'.

This is my friend John who runs the 'front of the house' at APW. He co-ordinates EVERYTHING! And his sweet service dog Sawyer AKA Bean.

Haha....this is tiny Peaches who was rescued from inside a lawnmower last week at Home Depot. The kind employees there took off a wheel to get her 'unstuck'. That's right....she's hanging out in a birdcage.

Some of my art at the silent auction. I think the painting sold but I'm not sure....or about the other stuff either. We had SO many GREAT donations for the silent auction.

Inside the winery....an old grape press.

We had so many people donate lovely food and sweets etc. Meatballs, cheese, tons of fruit, bacon wrapped dates, pasta salad etc.etc.

Some history about the winery.

Wine vats. They grow olive trees there too.

Nice painting. Olive oil & award winning wine.

Tables set up out back w/ grape vines. Wish that sun would hurry and go down...it was hot.

This is a cool idea. It's the wine pull! You pay $10. and pick a bottle to pull. Some are empty and some aren't. Good luck!

What a wonderful collection of gift baskets for the silent auction! Whatever didn't sell last night will be featured at another fundraiser at the end of October.

The D.J. did a good job of playing just the right kind of music. The event was well attended. I took pictures before it started.

Boxer mix puppies that will be ready to adopt in a week or so.

This sweetheart has been waiting a long time for someone to adopt her. Wacky ear....cute face. The ear is just a momentary thing.

Wine pull again...look at that cute pup-pup in the background.

These 'cages' are like little gazebos and really neat for showing the dogs during events. Easy to transport, unfold and set up. There were a group of cats there last night too. Ainsley wants to go home with you! Thanks everybody who came out there last night and to everybody who made it happen!!
