Mount Airy, MD - Doggy Noses Yoga Poses / Puppy Bowl
Join us as we present Doggy Noses & Yoga Poses at Linganore Winecellars to benefit Operation Paws for Homes!
You do the yoga while the pups do the cuddles! Adorable rescue puppies and dogs will be allowed to ROAM FREELY and interact with you during this one-hour mixed level yoga class , so be prepared to get puppy kisses! Your Pawssport also includes a complimentary glass of wine after the class (for guests 21 and over). Please bring your own yoga mat or towel to this class - Operation Paws for Homes will bring the pups!
If that’s not enough action for you, catch the “Kibble Krew” competing against “Wet Nose Nation” from 12-1:30PM. The hour-long game consists of four quarters; in between each quarter there will be a 10-minute "time out" in which attendees are encouraged to snuggle the pups and hype them up to get back out on the field! The game is cute but the competition will be fierce so reserve your spot to root on these puppy participants. Please note Linganore Winecellars is a 21+ indoor space beginning at 12PM when the winery is open to the public
Space is limited and interest will be high.
Yoga Pawssports : Info coming
A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to Operation Paws for Homes, and remember… the real win is finding these rescues a home!
Please note that as this is a fundraising event for the rescue, the only dogs allowed on the class floor will be the ones in the care of Operation Paws for Homes. Also, due to potential canine dietary restrictions, no food or treats will be allowed on the class floor. Thank you!
