Welcome to the Northalsted Newsletter! 🐕🎃
Who said Halloween is just for humans? Our four-legged friends deserve to enjoy the fun of dressing up and trick-or-treating, too! This Saturday is our 11th annual Northalsted Halloween Pup Crawl, so get yourselves and your fur babies ready to show off your tricks and get some treats from our participating partners. But the fun doesn’t stop there; come out to Chicago’s Proudest Neighborhood to see what else we have in store for you!
