Dorst
Four Legged Friends Photography has listed the following events as a service to the Tucson Pet Community. We have tried to
keep the information as accurate as possible and have provided links to the actual events if they were given to us. Kris would
like to note that just because an event is listed here it does not mean that she will be  shooting that event unless noted. We
simply want to give our clients easy access to what is happening in the Tucson area for their pets as well as provide the many
wonderful non-profits a little extra advertising  for their events
if there is a "poster" you can click on it and it will expand for easier viewing
.If you have an event coming up please use the form below to send  us the details we will be happy to let people know about it..

you enjoy food, specialty beers, and live music all while
helping raise much needed funds for non-profit
organizations in our community. Barrio Brewery is also
generously donating 10% of food sales and offering drink
specials to all who attend this benefit. The brewery’s patio is
dog friendly so you can enjoy ale alongside your pal with a
