Yappy Hour, Michigan Animal Rescue League

By Gigi Nichols

Approximately 550 people, along with their four-legged friends, attended the Michigan Animal Rescue League’s Yappy Hour, which was deemed the only cocktail party in Metro Detroit where your dog is welcome. Held on the grounds of Meadow Brook Hall, the evening included strolling dinner, photo opportunities, silent auction and a Dog Bar stocked with special treats for furry guests. Cara Krupa and Beth Davidson chaired the event which raised closed to $200,000. All proceeds will directly benefit the over 1,500 dogs and cats that MARL cares for each year.
