Date: Friday, October 23, 2015
Time: 7 p.m. to Midnight

Location: The Dearborn Inn, A Marriott Hotel

Black Tie & Tails is one of the most anticipated and premier fundraising events for animal welfare in Southeast Michigan. Since 2001, the event has raised more than $1 million, directly benefiting some 45,000 rescues. All proceeds from this “elegant evening for four-footed friends” enable us to provide quality care to the more than 2,700 animals who find refuge at the Dearborn Animal Shelter each year, as well as offer innovative community outreach to thousands of pet families.
