Bow Wow Halloween 2017 theme was:
Step back in time to the Roaring ’20’s when a quick knock at the right unmarked door in Tin Pan Alley opened to a bevy of “It” girls and swanky Swells puttin’ on the Ritz enjoying some forbidden Hooch! You’ll be the cat’s pajamas in your flapper finery while you sip our special Halloween cocktail, the “Prohibition Inhibition Martini”.

Tina Sinatra with Teri Austin |
Tina Sinatra (daughter of Frank Sinatra and Nancy Barbato) returned this year to talk about her long time support of The Amanda Foundation's mission to rescue homeless dogs and cats. She is an actress and producer, known for The Manchurian Candidate (2004), Perlico - Perlaco (1971) and Dream Girl of '67 (1966).
Tina confessed she was once allergic to dogs but overcame it with help from the Amanda Foundation, and she has been a dog-owner ever since.
