Calling all Bark n’ Brew Enthusiasts.📢
Save the date for our 10th Annual Pup Crawl — Saturday, April 27, 2024 from 12 to 4 PM. This year’s Pup Crawl is going to hit Dallas like a tail-wagging tornado! Trust us, you won’t want to miss this event.
We’re thrilled to celebrate life-saving efforts in North Texas! Every dollar raised at this event directly supports the medical care of our beloved pets awaiting adoption. And to make things even better, this year’s crawl will be held exclusively at Community Beer Co. (CBC), now featuring the latest addition: the Dallas Pets Alive! (DPA) Adoption Container.
The Adoption Container marks a turning point in DPA’s journey, ushering in a new era of connectivity and opportunity. Boasting an outside bar for CBC patrons, a customized rooftop set to host private events, an outdoor play area for animals and potential adopters to socialize, a retail haven for DPA! goodies, and state-of-the-art technology for matchmaking experiences, this container became more than just a structure — it became a bustling hub of activity. From hosting adoption events to conducting training sessions, it quickly became the heart of DPA’s operations.
In 2023 alone, it facilitated an impressive 47 adoptions, 43 meet-and-greets, and welcomed 410 foster animals. Its presence at the brewery attracted thousands of potential adopters and supporters, igniting a passion for DPA’s mission to eliminate euthanasia of companion animals in North Texas. With its innovative design and strategic placement, the Adoption Container has become a beacon of hope, shining a light on the incredible work of DPA! and the pet companions it serves.
It’s the Perfect Pairing of Paws & Pints 🐾🍻

And the best part? By attending this event, your contributions will go directly to saving the lives of pets in need in North Texas. It’s beer with a bark and a bite! 🍺 🌮🍕🥪

🎟️ 4 CBC Drink Tickets: Get ready to wet your whistle with four drink tickets, redeemable for your choice of beer, seltzer, or NADA — the non-alcoholic beer that won’t judge you for pretending it’s the real deal.
🍺 Commemorative Beer Glass: Be one of the first 350 to purchase tickets to score a commemorative beer glass and sip your way into Pup Crawl history. ⚠️Warning: may cause intense feelings of superiority among your glass-less friends.
🎵 Live Music & Pet Vendors: Groove to the tunes, shop for your furry friend, and maybe even find your new drinking buddy (no, not your dog, although your pooch is certainly welcome too).
🎯 Fun Activities: We’ve got activities to keep you and your pack entertained all day long. Spoiler alert: it’s going to be paw-some!
🌭🍔🍟 Delicious Food: Refuel and recharge with mouthwatering bites from The Community Kitchen. Because, reality check — drinking on an empty stomach is a rookie move, and nobody likes a rookie.
💗 A Warm, Fuzzy Feeling: Knowing that you’re helping save homeless pets? That’s the warm, fuzzy feeling you’ve been searching for (and no, it’s not just the beer talking).
