A fundraising event with adorable dogs and delicious hot coffee? Yes, please.
On Jan. 16, dog-loving, coffee-drinking meetup group Pups ‘N Coffee is hosting its first-ever benefit, Winter Puppyland, to raise awareness and money for The Humane Society of New York.
Hosted at The Salty Paw, a pet emporium in the South Street Seaport, humans can warm up with a cup of Joe from Gregorys Coffee and nibble on cake, while pups will get spoiled with a treat bar from New York City-based Maison de pawZ.

The event will have fun raffle prizes including a free vacation. (We could all use one of those.)
Guests of the two-legged and four-legged kind can also snap pictures with Instagram pup celebs Bing and Walter and Koki, while checking out adoptable dogs. Plus, owners can browse the amazing curated selection of goodies available at Salty Paw.
While the event is free to attend, VIP tickets are available for purchase. The tickets cost $10 (plus tax) and include entry into the raffle. Here is where you can purchase tickets.

All proceeds go towards the Humane Society of New York.
“This is our very first fundraiser and I couldn’t be more excited to serve coffee to benefit this incredible no-kill animal shelter,” says Pups ‘N Coffee founder Dani Pedraza. “I’m hoping this event encourages more people to adopt and support the HSNY. ”
The event is on Jan. 16 from 12-3 pm at 38 Peck Slip, New York, NY 10038.
