Calling all dogs – pure breeds, mutts, and rescues! Long Beach’s first winery, Waters Edge Winery in Downtown Long Beach, is unveiling a wall of local dog portraits displayed inside the winery. Local dogs are invited to be photographed at the winery by appointment to be included in the growing gallery. Click HERE for samples.

“We’ve always known that Long Beach loves their dogs, and Waters Edge Winery has always welcomed dogs to join their pet parents on our two dog-friendly patios”, stated owner/winemaker Collin Mitzenmacker. “With my own dog Molly the Beagle being the first Waters Edge Winery ‘winery dog’, we wanted to express our love for other Long Beach dogs by including them on our portrait wall.”

There is no cost for dogs to be photographed. Pet parents can simply make an appointment by emailing marketing@wewlongbeach.com with the dog’s name, breed and Instagram handle (if the pooch has one). Participating dog’s photographs will be added to the portrait wall, and the dog owner will also receive a copy of the photo once printed.
