Inspired by the spirit of the Met Gala, Tailwags transforms Buena Vista Winery into a joyful celebration of animals, elegance, and generosity.
The highlight of the afternoon is our beloved Dog Parade, where shelter pups and Pets Lifeline alumni take the stage in their most charming attire. It’s a moment guaranteed to steal hearts and remind us why this work matters.
Guests will enjoy a beautiful wine country luncheon, exceptional wines, and an exciting silent auction, all while supporting Pets Lifeline’s mission to rescue, care for, and find loving homes for Sonoma Valley’s dogs and cats.
