Yappy Howl-O-Ween

Dogs can take part in fun Halloween festivities too at the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel’s Howl-O-Ween seasonal Yappy Hour celebration on Thursday, Oct. 29 from 4 to 7 p.m.

You can dress up your pup in their favorite costume. A panel of judges will determine which dog will take home the prize in the costume categories of Dynamic Duo, Most Creative, Cute and Cuddly and, of course, Best in Show.

First place prize in each category is a hand-painted dog bowl by Debby Carman of Faux Paws Productions. Cost to enter the costume contest is $10 per canine. Proceeds will benefit the Wounded Veterans Initiative of Canine Companions for Independence.

Yappy Hour is held on the Dana Lawn at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel.
