Atlanta-based frozen dog treats company Frost Bytz recently hosted its Paws & Pose event for dogs and owners to experience a doggy runway show and special holiday photo opportunities.
The event was curated around raising money for the Georgia Homeless Pets Animal Rescue Group, a 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to save, care for, and place animals into loving homes.
“Frost Bytz appreciates everyone who attended our event,” said Bakir Floyd, co-founder of Frost Bytz, an Atlanta-based company that specializes in providing frozen doggy treats. “We’re happy that we were able to provide so much joy and make an impact with organizations like the Georgia Homeless Pets Animal Rescue Group, Lifeline Animal Project, and Happy Hearts Pet Care Atlanta.”
In addition to the money that was raised, Frost Bytz contributed a check of $500 to Georgia Homeless Pets Animal Rescue Group and also gave $500 checks to both Lifeline Animal Project and Happy Hearts Pet Care Atlanta.
Hosted by Atlanta radio personality Reec (Majic 107.5) and creative directed by Marcus Blassingame, attendees experienced a doggy fashion show, where models and dogs walked down the runway with wears by fashion designer Ricardo Auguste.
Auguste is the owner of Beaut Outerwear, a custom clothing label that designs garments for both pets and pet owners.
A few of the dogs that were up for adoption also strutted down the runway in Beaut Outerwear, allowing potential new dog owners to see what they got. Additionally, attendees were able to take part in unique photo opportunities with four handmade custom holiday sets, where pet owners posed with their dogs.
“This was the perfect event to kick off the holiday season for pet owners. We were able to not only provide them with a unique experience for their dogs, but we also were able to give back to organizations that make an impact in the pet community,” Floyd said.
Floyd also commented that the success of this event means that the company will attempt to host more unique events with the same mission, supporting organizations that help dogs in need.

Tour of Homes
In early October, the Tour of Homes took place, which showcased a wonderful collection of residences to view that will illustrate several of the values we share as a community.
One of the homes was rebuilt incorporating several aspects of sustainable living. They recycled many items of the previous structure, installed pecan floors created from a tree which grew in their backyard and included various natural elements in the construction of stone walls, all resulting in a stylish, spacious, comfortable, contemporary living space.
Many of the homes displayed their significant art collections, much created by local artists. Of course, we also consider our gardens part of the art world, so stay alert to the many forms of gardening that have been created. You may even notice that some of us have eliminated grass entirely from our landscapes.
Artists Market
Open 11:00 am to 7:00 pm Saturday and Sunday, the Fall Fest Artist Market is full of local artist and vendors that have been carefully curated just for you! With over 200+ booths, there is something for everyone! From handmade pottery and paintings to kids crafts and apparel, we know you will find just what you are looking all while supporting local businesses.
