Hi I just saw your article for “meet the pugs” What a great early Thanksgiving gift to the Zimmermans. We will see you in St Augustine. I did not see a time for the get together. Thank you so much..Looking forward to meeting you.. As you can see I’m a bit excited…..Don and Sherry Zimmerman
Hi Sherry,
It will be wonderful to see you there. We will be at the gallery pretty much all day saturday and I believe there will be a party in the evening a well. We will be at the Gallery again on Sunday, but I believe most of the events are on Saturday. We will be bringing several of our fosters with us. Please meet all of our available babies online before you come so that you can put a cuddle to a name in St. Augustine. Thanks, Dana-Foster Coordinator
Hi Sherry and Dana,
The adoption event will be on Saturday, Nov. 20 from 10-5pm at High Tide Gallery, 51 Cordova Street in St. Augustine.
Then we will have a Saturday Night Fundraiser Party from 6-8 pm for CFPR. This will be held literally around the corner from the gallery in the picket-fenced courtyard of Schmagel’s Bagels on Hypolita Street. Since Saturday begins the Nights of Lights in the Oldest City, imagine millions of tiny white lights outlining all of the historic buildings and trees downtown! PUGS are free; Humans pay $15 which includes a pizza bagel and drinks, with the proceeds going to CFPR. Thank you Domingo of Schmagel’s Bagels!!!
Sunday will wrap up with more adoption opportunities at the gallery, following up with applicants, etc. Looking forward to seeing everyone and thanks for all you do!
Aimee
gallery owner

Also, could someone from CFPR add our “Meet The Pugs” events to the calendar for Nov. 20th? Thanks!
Hi Aimee,
It is on the home page under special announcements with all the info including your artist doing whimsical portraits. I can try to add it to the upcoming events calendar as well.

What time does the event end on SAT? We can’t get there until probably after 5pm but don’t want to miss out!
Will pugs still be there on sunday?
Hi Wendy and Norm,
We will have the adoption event from 10am-5pm on Saturday, but we will also be holding a fundraiser/pug party from 6pm-8pm Saturday evening, so you will definitely have the opportunity to still meet the pugs and have a wonderful time. yes, we will be there on Sunday as well probably until mid-afternoon. We will see you there!
Which pugs from CFPR will be at the adoption event?
Tracy,
At this time, we tentatively believe the following pugs will be at St. Augustine:
Penny (Sat & Sun)
Frankie & Lucy (Sat & Sun)
Tea Rose (Sat)
Sophie (Sat)
Miles (Sat & Sun)
This is tentative and subject to change. I hope you’ll be able to come out and meet them, as well as attend the party.
