Bow-Wows & Meows was initially just an idea I had while sitting in my living room with my dog, Bear, and cat, Sam.
I thought of how much I loved my pets and how much they contributed to my life. How wonderful it would be if everyone knew of the multitude of benefits animals have to offer! With there being so many homeless pets and so many pet-less people, what could I do to bridge the gap? The first Annual Bow-Wows & Meows
pet fair was created in 2001.

  
       
   

Our Future
The extraordinary success of our pet fairs inspired us to grow beyond our original expectations! We became a non-profit organization. We are adding additional programs and events to benefit the animals and serve our community.

Our long-term goal is to provide a sanctuary for dogs and cats in which no unnecessary euthanasia will take place. Bow-Wows & Meows, Inc. began as a thought, continues through inspiration and remains open to unlimited possibilities.
