Pints for Pitbulls

 A couple weeks ago, in the rain, about 150 of OCPBR's closest friends traveled to The Factory in Long Beach to drink, bid on silent auction items, and meet other dog rescue enthusiasts. It's never a bad night when you get to attend a fundraiser and take photos of happy people with their dogs.


It's safe to say we pretty much took over the entire restaurant, plus the patio, and there was literally a line out the door most the night!
Volunteers and guests scoping out the silent auction goods which included MY photo shoot!

Julianna knows how to get a bar crowd listening.
They were able to raise over $2500 including an echocardiogram from VCA All Care FV for one of their adorable dogs up for adoption, Stevie. 
 Name your price pints! The Spring Ale was GONE in 27 minutes!

Here are some goodies that were up for auction:

Raffle prizes galore! All of these companies understand the true meaning of giving, and the volunteers did a great job with the swag bags.
 And here is one happy winner! :)
Most importantly, I was very happy to find that some dogs were able to come out despite the weather! They of course garnered plenty of attention and crowds but I was able to sneak a few shots in:
Aspen

This loving dog was just 2 weeks out of surgery after losing her leg and was soaking up ALL the attention!


Last but not least, a major thank you to all who bid on my photo shoot, Julianna for welcoming me into the event, and congratulations to Julie and her pack for winning the auction! Stay tuned for the photos of that adventure coming soon.
