Pause 4 Paws, an all-volunteer nonprofit, pulled out all the stops for its yearly fundraiser, a Tail-Wagging Affair. The event, held at the Minneapolis Event Center at St. Anthony Main, boasted a cocktail hour, live and silent auctions, tastings from local breweries and distilleries and desserts. Funds raised from the event go to support 18 Minnesota animal rescue groups and sanctuaries, which help thousands of cats and dogs find homes.
