Doors open at 5:30 pm and includes dinner and dancing with all proceeds going to the Pet Adoption League, Catawba Humane Society and Save-A-Pet, Dothan.

Tickets for the event are $30.

Paws for the Cause will not only feature dinner, cash bar and dancing, but also Chinese Auction Baskets (100+), Silent Auction Items, door prizes and a police K9 demonstration.  D. Cole Auctioneering has generously donated their time for the Live Auction Event.

Additionally, Petland Norwin provides food for 8 local police K9 units from North Versailles, Greensburg, Swissvale, Elizabeth Township and Elizabeth Borough.
