Sponsored by Chicago magazine, canine guests indulged in a doggie buffet and received paw-di-cures and brush outs at the Dog Spa. Their humans enjoyed a beachfront buffet, photo booth, caricature artist, and exciting auctions. Proceeds will fund lifesaving programs for homeless pets. For more information, visit pawschicago.org.
