Important Reminders: Drink Responsibly & Prioritize Your Pup's Safety

While a Pup Crawl is all about fun, it's important to drink responsibly and prioritize your dog's safety and comfort.


Tips for a Safe & Fun St. Paw-trick's Day Pup Crawl through DTLA

1.Know your pup's limits. If they get overwhelmed by crowds, visit during quieter hours.


2.Hydration is key! Bring a collapsible water bowl for your pup.


3.Be mindful of other patrons. Not everyone is a dog person (wild, right?). Keep your pup on a leash and respect personal space.


4.Pace yourself. If you're planning to hit multiple stops, sip responsibly and never let alcohol affect your ability to care for your dog.


5.Plan your ride home. If you're drinking, call a rideshare or have a designated driver.
