**Dog tickets are sold out, only human tickets remain** Dust off your fascinators, press those pocket squares, and dress up your dog, because it's the second Small Dog Tea Party, presented by Real Dog Moms of Chicago and Hinsdale Humane Society! This tea party will have a Valentine's Day twist and will be taking place on Sunday, February 9th at the beautiful Drake Hotel on Michigan Ave. The Small Dog Tea Party is child and small dog (under 20 lbs) friendly, and includes a vegan tea sandwich option. Please anticipate carrying your dog or holding them in your lap for most of the event. We hope you will join us on for this very special afternoon benefiting The Hinsdale Humane Society. ---- We at Real Dog Moms of Chicago love dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments but the limitations of this particular event mean that all dogs must either be held or in a carrier/stroller at all times. We are exploring ways to hold a special event which can accommodate dogs of all sizes and appreciate your enthusiasm to participate with larger pups. Thank you for your support, and if you are interested in helping, we always need volunteers to support our work with local rescues in finding forever homes for dogs of all sizes!

Doggy Paddle has updated the party registration process in 2020. They are going to have guests commit first with the ticket purchase. Then you will receive time slots based upon dog size, temperament or, if possible, requested friends to swim with. While there are no refunds, if a dog doesn't have current records or has noted behavior issues, you will be refunded. Our top priority is the safety of human and dog guests. $25 for the 30 minute swim, BYOB with pizzas provided. Plus, your dog is welcome to play in the indoor park during the party. So feel free to come a little early and let them socialize before & after their swim.

SOLD OUT Kukur (dog) Tihar, which acknowledges the cherished relationship between humans and dogs, falls on day two of Tihar, Nepal's second largest festival, more commonly known as Diwali (read more about it in our blog post). Real Dog Moms of Chicago has partnered with Utsab & Prasanna, the owners of The Amazing Paw dog walking company and native to Nepal to bring together a local celebration of our dogs. Together with One Tail At A Time we will be hosting a beautiful evening on October 26th at One Tail At A Time’s Adoption Center to bless our beloved dogs both those with homes and those waiting for homes. Every detail has been carefully planned in honor of the Hindu tradition. Utsab’s mother will be flying in from Nepal and teaching Jessica (rdmoc) and Heather (OTAT) how to perform the blessing alongside her, as well as bringing in traditional items for the tika, garland and food offerings. We are very excited to share, honor and experience this wonderful celebration with our community. Tickets for this event include traditional tea and small bites from Nepal, as well as local food and beverage items. Somewhere in my googling I saw that gambling, especially card games are also popular parts of the festivities and are considered auspicious. We will be hosting raffle items to raise more money for One Tail at a Time and a dog shelter in Nepal. Tickets will be on sale before the blessing and winner selected after the blessing in celebration. This event begins at 7pm, we will host a "just the blessing" portion in the beginning for those wishing to partake in only that portion of the event. This will be on leash and a controlled setting for those with dogs that may be reactive to others or not good at play, we encourage everyone to come have their dogs blessed. We suggest those coming for the blessing and celebration arrive closer to 7:30pm, as we continue the blessing and invite these ticket holders to enjoy food and beverages. All can purchase raffle tickets and need not be present to win. All celebration participants receive a swag bag full of goodies for your dog and some for the humans! Thank You to Our Event SponsorsClick on the logos below to learn more about these pawsome businesses.                  EVENT DETAILS:
