Over $1M raised! ♥️ Pints n’ Paws is a unique craft beer festival, one that you can share with your favorite pet! Enjoy!!!

🐾 Sanford Pints N' Paws Craft Beer Festival has been bringin’ the tail-waggin’ fun to Historic Downtown Sanford for over 14 years!

🍻 Local brews, food trucks, live music, and much more! 100% of proceeds go to local pet rescues. The premise of the event is a festival that you buy a ticket to, then sample fine craft beers and check out vendor booths, all while hanging out on the bricks of 2nd street! Hosted by The West End Trading Co in beautiful and historic Downtown Sanford, Pints n’ Paws has teamed up with local non-profit organizations like Pet Rescue by Judy to raise some money for our four legged friends! 100% percent of the proceeds from this event go to charity!!! We also hope to provide an educational experience to those who want to learn more about the craft beers that are offered around these parts, so be sure to keep your eyes open for the brew masters and brewery representatives that will be present to answer questions and educate!

Happy National Dog Day from Pints n’ Paws! 🐾💛

Today is all about the dogs who make our lives a little happier, a little messier, and a whole lot better.

Pints n’ Paws is more than a day of dogs, drinks and fun. Every year, our festival helps raise money for local animal-focused nonprofits doing the work year-round, from rescue and rehabilitation to adoption, medical care, outreach and programs that improve the lives of animals throughout Central Florida.

Thanks to everyone who attends, volunteers, sponsors, pours a b**r, brings a pup or simply helps spread the word. Together, we’re able to turn a really fun day into something that makes a real difference. 🐶💙

Here’s to good dogs, good people and a great cause. Happy National Dog Day! 🐾
