Some of the Lowcountry’s cutest and most eligible dogs are looking to mingle at the second annual Mutt Mixer concert event supporting pet rescue from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 19 at AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head.
Guests can enjoy complimentary hors d’oeuvres, beverages, door prizes, live music by the bluegrass band Lowcountry Boil and, new this year, professional portraits of their dog with a minimum donation to Palmetto Animal League. As always, the party is “BYOD” (Bring Your Own Dog), as AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head is a dog-friendly dealership.
For those hoping to find their next great love at the event, fee-waived pet adoptions will be available, made possible through a generous grant from the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals).
“Last year’s event was a blast with many people coming out to support animal rescue and others hoping to make a connection with one of our adoptable dogs,” PAL President Amy Campanini said in a media release. “AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head’s Mutt Mixer provides our dogs with a fun night out of the adoption center and the possibility of finding a forever home.”
The first 100 people to arrive at the Mutt Mixer with a donation of pet supplies or cash, valued at $20 or more, for PAL will receive a free event T-shirt.
Attendees may RSVP to be eligible for door prizes at https://muttmixer2023.eventbrite.com. As another way to support PAL’s no kill animal rescue programs, AutoNation Subaru Hilton Head will donate $100 to PAL for every dog or cat adopted in October.
Palmetto Animal League is a private, non-profit, no kill animal rescue organization that believes every animal deserves a second chance at life. PAL’s Adoption Center, located in Okatie’s Riverwalk Business Park, serves as a temporary residence for approximately 200 dogs and cats while they wait to find a loving home.
