WOOFING IT UP

Pet lovers from the area gathered at the Glen Arbor Golf Club in Bedford Hills to celebrate the eighth year of operation of ANCAR — A New Chance Animal Rescue. Dedicated to saving lives “one tail at a time,” the organization started in 2011 and is based on the foster-home model of pet rescue. It has helped more than 500 pets find their “fur-ever” homes with families in our area. The Wag, Woof and Wine Cocktail Gala is its largest fundraiser of the year. Along with dog-themed activities such as a dog-kissing booth plus live and silent auctions, the event recognized Sharon Silverman, Susan DiTomasso and Nora Bisignano for their efforts with the rescue group.
