A tail-wagging tropical escape is coming to London this November, and we can’t wait! We’ll be transporting humans & hounds to warmer climes at the Pups’ Paradise Escape Supper Party on Sunday, 13th November, when we’ll take over dog-friendly Ollie’s House in Chelsea for a night of tropical vibes, faraway fun and some much-needed ‘Vitamin B-ark’.
