Bark Less, Wine More: A Dolly-Inspired Wine Tasting for RescuedMe

It's a Dolly kind of afternoon in Charlotte, and the dogs are invited.

Vanna Vanity of The Vanity House performs in full Dolly-inspired glam at Wine Vault University on Sunday, October 18, from 2 to 5 PM. Your ticket covers tastings of about 20 wines. Every dollar goes to RescuedMe.org.

Bring your dog. Costumes are encouraged. Cowboy hats, denim, rhinestones! Well-behaved dogs only, please. If your dog would rather not spend three hours around a crowd, leave them home and we will send pictures.

The patio will be open along with the tasting room, so there's room to spread out. Good news if your dog does better with some space.

This event benefits RescuedMe.org, a Charlotte dog rescue founded in 2007. Every dollar raised goes to the dogs.
