urbAnimal Pet Store Hosts Dogtoberfest October 14



urbAnimal pet store in South Minneapolis is hosting Dogtoberfest, Saturday, October 14, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event, sponsored by Solid Gold health food for pets, pays tribute to German dog breeds and the German culture with a unique mix of events and exhibits for attendants and their canine companions.

's8220;While the theme of Dogtoberfest celebrates dogs of German origin, it's8217;s really meant for every dog lover and their companion's8212;no matter what ancestry or breed,'s8221; says Trish Moreland, owner of urbAnimal and host of this year's8217;s Dogtoberfest.

With a theme of Es Lebe der Hund (Long Live the Dog) attendants can expect to party with their pooch -- German-style -- with a beer tasting and grilled brats and bones, German Dog Breed Pageant, mini vendor fair and door prizes. A roving musician will set the mood. Celebrants will also get a chance to help less fortunate dogs through contributions to Underdog Rescue, a Minneapolis-based canine rescue and re-homing organization.
