The fun heats up at Bell Tower Shops as Yappy Hour & Bowl Stroll continues throughout the summer.

On the second Friday of each month – June 11, July 9, Aug. 13 and Sept.10 – canines and their owners will enjoy the “bowl stroll” throughout the shopping center where blue dog bowls identify the numerous merchants who are pooch-friendly. Dogs must be leashed. The social event is free with beverage proceeds benefiting the Gulf Coast Humane Society.

“Yappy Hour has become a tremendous success,” said Amy Fletcher, director of marketing at Bell Tower Shops. “I know our shoppers look forward to socializing with their dogs and so do our merchants.”

The mission of the Gulf Coast Humane Society is to provide humane care for surrendered animals in Southwest Florida by offering refuge, providing medical care and facilitating an adoptive home. GCHS is a private nonprofit 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization serving the area. For more information, visit www.GulfCoastHumaneSociety.org.
