Let the dogs out, and have fun with them. Adoptable pets will be on hand.

Pedicures for pets, and dog tags for humans.

There’s something new for everyone at the All About Dogs Luau and Pet Adoption Event on Saturday at On Angels’ Wings in Crystal Lake.

The day promises to be dog-gone fun as the Luau gets under way in the parking lot outside the On Angels’ Wings thrift store, 5186 Route 14, Crystal Lake. The store is located just west of Pingree Road.
