Purses for Paws is a unique event in Saskatoon where leaving with another woman’s purse is expected. Fundraising Coordinator for New Hope Dog Rescue, Tricia McAuley, says purses are collected throughout the year for the luncheon on November 16th at the Hilton Garden Inn. There are over 100 new and gently used designer handbags up for grabs in the silent auction. McAuley adds there will also be a puppy corral, so you can do some puppy cuddling as well. Proceeds go directly to New Hope Dog Rescue which is a foster-based rescue that helps unwanted, abandoned and abused dogs find loving homes. At any given time, there are about 100 dogs being fostered by around 80 foster families. If you are interested in fostering a dog, McAuley says it’s not always a longer commitment, sometimes it’s just for a few days or a couple of weeks.
