FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – The Pet Project will be holding a Fourth of July Fundraiser at Mona’s Cocktail Lounge on July 4, starting at 12 noon. The fundraiser will include several raffles throughout the day and a cookout starting at 2 p.m. Mona’s is located at 502 E. Sunrise Boulevard (just west of the FEC Railroad tracks) in Fort Lauderdale.

There will also be a Florida Leather Canine Dog Contest at Ramrod on Sunday, July 10, starting at 8 p.m. Bring your “best friend” in his finest leather and perhaps he will win a spot in the 2012 Collar and Cuffs calendar.

The Pet Project’s mission is to do what needs to be done to keep the human/animal bond intact for people living with a life-threatening or terminal disease through pet care services and education.
