2nd Annual Barks Babes and Bros 2/6

Second Annual Barks, Babes, & Bros (formerly Brews)

Salty Dog Paddle was pleased to present a celebrity dating fundraiser just in time for Valentine’s Day 2017 which took place on Monday, February 6th at Renegades WPB. Thanks to your kind support and donations we raised $14,000 for injured rescue dogs at Tri-County and Peggy Adams Animal Rescues.

Barks, Babes, and Bros (formerly Brews) was Bachelor and Bachelorette auction with celebrity contestants including James Taylor and Derek Peth from ABC’s The Bachelorette, World’s Perfect Woman 2016 – Crystal Gail who appeared on E! Network’s Catching Kelce, Ms. Woman United States 2016 – Katie (Katherine) Hill, and other celebrity contestants.

The event was FREE to attend and 100% of the proceeds from the auction and donations was used for the emergency medical treatment of animals in distress.
