New Rochelle Attorney Lydia S. Antoncic Sponsors 'Bark for Life' Team

The Bark for Life event will be held on April 12 at Lyndhurst in Tarrytown

New Rochelle-based law firm Lydia S. Antoncic, P.C. will be sponsoring the American Cancer Society Bark For Life fundraising event which will honor the life-long contributions of canine caregivers, organizers announced.

Antoncic will be joining ‘Team Labradors for Life,’ where she will honor the breed of her own pup during the Bark for Life event, which will be held on April 12 at Lyndhurst in Tarrytown. She will walk with other fellow animal lovers and canine givers, such as guide dogs and service dogs, to honor people lost to cancer and raise funds to support of the American Cancer Society mission of ”eliminating cancer though research, education, advocacy and service.”

Antoncic is one of a very few number of attorneys in Westchester that focuses on animal law. Her devotion to children’s rights and animal protection frequently cross-over into not-for profit and advocacy work like Bark for Life.
