The 10th annual Purses for Pooches & Pals once again attracted a crowd of over 400 women to the Humane Society of Missouri on Thursday, June 25, 2015. The guests enjoyed food and refreshments from St. Louis’ finest restaurants, gorgeous designer purses and shoes for raffle, a live auction, and the opportunity to network and meet the lovable animals at the Humane Society of Missouri’s state-of-the-art facility. This year’s designers included Prada, Gucci, Coach, and Kate Spade.

Since 1870, the Humane Society of Missouri has dedicated itself to second chances. It provides a safe and caring haven to all animals in need – large and small – that have been abused, neglected or abandoned. Its mission is ending the cycle of abuse and pet overpopulation through the rescue and investigation efforts, spay/neuter programs and educational classes. HSMO is committed to creating lasting relationships between people and animals through its adoption programs. It further supports that bond by making available world-class veterinary care, and outstanding pet obedience and behavior programs. The animals thank you for your support.
