Date: Sat. 04/16 | 1:00PM - Sat. 04/16 @ Norwood Estates Dog Park. Before we hit the dog days of summer, bring your pooch for Doggie Day Out with Google Places in the Norwood Estates Dog Park! While us humans chat about how to rate and review your favorite local businesses using Google Places, our pups can mingle in this fully-fenced, leash-free dog park.  Show the Google Places app on your Smartphone for a free Places dog bandana (while supplies last)! We'll be at the park (1009 Edgecliff Terrace, Austin, TX 78704) from 1-3pm, just look for our Austin Community Manager, Whitney, in a red Google hat. Friendly, well-behaved dogs only, please. :)

HomeSlice Pizza's 4th Annual Carnival-O-Pizza to benefit Austin Pets Alive!

HomeSlice is throwing a party to celebrate their 4th anniversary, and to benefit Austin Pets Alive!  I went to this awesomely fun carnival last year, and I entered the eating contest.  Though I didn't win the eating contest, I had a blast watching some break dancing and hopping into the Annie Ray Photo Booth.  If I hadn't mentioned it, I love Annie Ray.  I go to some events just to jump into the photo booth.
