Places and Spaces

As summer is upon us, Louisiana residents creatively coming up with ways to stay cool with their furry friends—no-flavor snowballs, ice baths in the kiddie pool, or throwing back a couple of cold ones (yes, they make beer for dogs and wine for cats now).

There’s no need to jump through hoops to find a bad-to-the-bone boozy brunch spot to enjoy with spot. Pup & Purr has sniffed out some of the most wag-worthy brunches around, so grab your pooch and head out for some dog-gone creative cuisine and eye-opening libations that are sure to raise the woof!

It’s that magical time of year bustling with holiday festivities, celebratory cocktailing, family feasts—oh, and this little thing we call Mardi Gras! While you’re making spirits bright, your favorite furry friend yearns to be part of the joy of the season, too!

For over one hundred years, New Orleanians have celebrated Mardi Gras with pomp and circumstance, but now our four-legged best friends can now get in on the action. From puppy parades to costume contests, there are many opportunities for your pets to enjoy themselves alongside their families.
