The Great Milwaukee Summer is HERE! Your guide to what you'll be doing, where you'll be drinking, who you'll be hearing and how you'll be getting a sweet tan this summer is on OnMilwaukee. The Great Milwaukee Summer guide is brought to you by Educators Credit Union and Harley-Davidson Museum

Leash up the pups and swing by Great Lakes Distillery's patio, 616 W. Virginia St., this Sunday, Aug. 27 for a fur-tastic Sunday Funday called "Dog Days."

The event runs from 12 to 6 p.m. and celebrates the magical bond between humans and canines with an afternoon filled with treats, camaraderie and libations.

Here's a rundown of what you and your four-legged BFF can expect:

  • Enjoy dog-themed cocktails featuring GLD spirits made on-site.
  • Get canine-friendly treats from hoochMKE. (Good girls and Good Boys only.)
  • Listen to live music on the patio by dog lover Dianna Jones (3-6 p.m.)
  • Learn more about and possibly support the Wisconsin Humane Society.
  • Receive pet care tips and expert advice from Central Bark and Furry Land Mobile Grooming.
  • Relax, meet and mingle with fellow dogs, dog lovers and cocktail/mocktail enthusiasts.

Woof if this sounds fun!
