Hot Diggity Dog Day raises funds for Legacy Dog Rescue

LAKE MILTON — A fundraiser offered something for both dog supporters and hot-dog lovers.

Legacy Dog Rescue, a nonprofit organization that helps dogs in Mahoning and Trumbull counties, sponsored its first Hot Diggity Dog Day at Lil Paws Winery, 17574 Mahoning Ave., this afternoon.

“We fund-raise constantly,” said Erin Yale of Niles, who works for the dog rescue.

Attendees could purchase five hot-dog tastes paired with five wine tastes. There also was a bucket auction. Hot-dog types such as BLT hot dogs, sloppy joe dogs, Mexican dogs, Buffalo chicken dogs, veggie dogs and dessert dogs were featured at the event.

“I like events at wineries,” said Kristal Ruggles of Ravenna, who was trying a dessert dog. “Especially if they support dogs.”
