Hey!
Halloween is months away — but the spirit world isn't waiting.
This week has not one but two pet psychic events, and whether you're hoping to hear from a long-lost loved one or finally find out what's going on inside your dog's head, this is your moment.
Not a believer? There are more down to earth options like a pearl bracelet-making class at Boris & Horton, dog crafts in Bryant Park, and a full slate of Pride and World Cup events still rolling through the city.
The spirit world, the art world, the soccer world, the 💅 world — your dog has access to all of it this week.
In this week’s email:
Downward Dog with Your Dog: 🐕 friendly yoga.
And Pose: What’s life without a little fashion?
Enjoy the View: Chic rooftop drinks where dog’s are encouraged.
