Little Lucy’s Canine Couture Boutique will be hosting its 22nd annual Halloween pet parade on October 28 in Agawam Park Southampton at 1 PM.
The event is produced and organized by Patricia Hurley, owner of Little Lucy’s. Her beautiful rescued dog Lucy, inspired her to spread the word, that you can get a wonderful dog from a shelter. So she designed a fundraising campaign to raise animal awareness in the community, and introduce local animal rescue organizations — to help them grow their resources so they can continue to care for the homeless animals in need, until they find their new forever homes.
One hundred percent of all the proceeds raised during her event go directly to the animal welfare organization chosen that year. The parade has grown so much through the years that now instead of meeting in front of Patricia’s shop, everyone meets at Agawam Park. There’s a live band, food, costume awards, raffle prizes from local merchants, dogs for adoption, and more. After all the dogs are registered, everyone parades down Jobs Lane and Main Street. Then back to the park for all the festivities. This years event will benefit the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation.
