ABOUT MISTY EYES

Misty Eyes Animal Center has been providing safety and hope for dogs and cats in need since 2011. We are a 100% volunteer-run organization, and we are proud to say we are 100% debt-free!

Phase I: In 2018, we completed our current Administration Building & Adoption Center on 3.2 acres of land in Avon.

Phase 2: In Summer 2024, we are pleased to announce the Grand Opening of Kitty City! Kitty City is a permanent shelter, which will house up to 50 cats in spacious and stress-free suites.

Phase 3: Canine Country will house up to 50 dogs in spacious suites! Both of these new buildings will allow us to save hundreds more animals every year!

Phase 4: We will build a Training and Humane Education Building and Phase 5: A Memorial garden will be built at the back of our property

Proceeds from the Bow Wow Bash will help us complete this important project for our community.

ABOUT BOW WOW BASH

The Bow Wow Bash was founded in 2011 by 11-year old Courtney Sackett (with the help of her mother Sheryl Sackett-Francik) in order to raise money to help animals in need in our community. Every year since it’s founding, this event keeps getting bigger and better!

The Bow Wow Bash is an outdoor family event with 80+ vendors, the infamous (and competitive) Pet Contests, the Top Dog/Top Cat Competition, a lure course, rescue groups with lots of animals looking for their furever families, an incredible silent auction with items that will WOW you, food trucks, the exciting Doggy Skydiving Spectacular, and the highly-anticipated Hendricks Power Ball Drop!

This event draws over 1,000 people and hundreds of dogs (and cats and other various pets) each year!
