Calling all dog lovers!  The Humane Society of Pensacola will once again be hosting their annual “Barktoberfest” celebration, which will be held Saturday, October 1^st, 9:00 am to 4 pm, at Seville Square in downtown Pensacola.  This exciting event is fun for the whole family, and features great food, pet costume contests, and specialty vendors from around the area with exciting services and products for your canine companions.

Barktoberfest is the Humane Society of Pensacola’s BIGGEST fundraiser of the year, and it’s all about raising awareness of all the rescuers in the area that work so hard to find new homes for these wonderful pets! It is truly a fantastic opportunity for the community to get together and celebrate man’s best friend!

The Humane Society of Pensacola has served the Pensacola community for more than fifty years. Their mission is to spread information about spaying and neutering, to prevent animal cruelty and abuse, and to provide pet education programs for the local community.  They operate and maintain a “NO KILL” shelter and adoption center for homeless animals, which relies exclusively on private donations and fundraising activities.  That’s what makes “Barktoberfest” such an important event for dog-lovers in our area.
