“We had a fantastic time hosting all the incredible pups (and humans!) for one of the funnest events of the year,” says Midwest Coast GM Ryan McKinley. “It was great seeing everyone in such cheerful spirits enjoying some beers, and the pictures with Santa were so much fun (and funny). We’re happy to welcome the pups and their humans back to the taproom anytime!”

Best of all was seeing the dogs enjoying themselves and sniffin’ out new pals.

“We were thrilled to see so many wagging tails and smiling faces gather together on Sunday. Creating (many) memorable moments between pets and their people is at the heart of our business,” says ManyPets Growth Marketer Ethan Kimmel.

“Our partnership with Sidewalk Dog Media allowed us to uniquely interact with people on a personal level, teaming up with local Chicago vendors and rescue shelters such as One Tail at a Time. We are so glad that our first annual howliday party was a success and we look forward to hosting similar events in the future.”
