Wine, Kibbles & Bids is one of
Tri-County Humane Society's most important annual fundraisers
for homeless animals!

Wine, Kibbles & Bids is Tri-County Humane Society's springtime gala. As the name suggests, the night features wine and beer tasting (non-alcoholic options are available), delicious food, and one of the area's largest and most eclectic silent auctions. Every year there is live music from an area artist, and - best of all - the ability to interact with some special furry guests!

If you love wine, beer, food, silent auctions and animals, you won’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind annual event!

Save the date for next year's
Wine, Kibbles & Bids: May 7, 2026!

It's events like these that make it possible for TCHS to:

Place about 5,000 animals in homes every year.
Compassionately assist customers who need help rehoming their animals.
Ensure every animal is spayed/neutered, vaccinated, examined, microchipped, and well cared for before they are adopted.
Offer low-cost microchips to the public year-round.
Perform above-and-beyond medical procedures for animals in need.

Wine, Kibbles & Bids is for an important cause - but it's also a fun, memorable evening that celebrates the human-animal bond.

About OUr 2025 event

Tri-County Humane Society is proud to announce that Wine, Kibbles & Bids on May 1, 2025, was a resounding success! After expenses, we had a net profit of $104,316, one of our highest totals for this event ever!

Hundreds of people attended the event at Harvester Square. The evening featured both online and exclusive in-person silent auctions, live music, beer and wine tasting, a gourmet dinner, and special appearances by TCHS puppies and kittens.

A huge portion of the evening’s total was raised by TCHS Board Member Bill Nelson, who brought in more than $44,000. He raised that money through the Spay-ghetti and No (Meat) Balls dinner, meat raffles, Billy’s Jars, and more.

We are so grateful to everyone who contributed to this event’s success, including our sponsors, attendees, donors, and volunteers.
