Yappy hour
Melanie Dallas, the owner of Saratoga dog boutique Sloppy Kisses, has organized a series of Yappy Hours at The Backstretch Tap Room (the former It's Confidential) on Caroline Street this summer. Yappy hours are kind of what they sound like: happy hour -- with dogs.
The next yappy hour is June 14 at 1 pm.
Bonus pet-related items
+ The Albany Society of the Advancement of Philanthropy has organized a cruise on the Hudson this weekend to benefit Project Drumm, a no-kill animal rescue here in the Capital Region. The "Critter Cruise" is 2-4 pm this Saturday. It's $30. ASAP promises "plenty of dancing and fun for everyone."
+ And if you're up in Glens Falls, it sounds like Davidson Brothers is the place to dine with your dog.
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

It's also the annual pug costume ball in Colonie Town Park. Personally I'm waiting for a mastiff costume ball.

I cant wait to get out on that boat, wind in my hair Titanic style, mixing it up with great people. We're gonna make that cruise look like a Duran Duran video.
