This month at Metropawlis
We hope you and your pet are enjoying the beginning of
spring. As the weather turns warmer, it's a great time to visit
Metropawlis and check out the other shops and restaurants of the Historic Third
Ward! If you're looking for a reason to pay us a visit, please see our
invitation to a special Isle of Dog wine and cheese reception, stop by during
Gallery Night, or visit to enjoy some special VIP savings.
Join us for wine and cheese on Wednesday, April 11th from 6 to
8 p.m. and learn more about the Isle of Dogs grooming product system. A
representative will be in the store to introduce the grooming products and to
answer questions you may have regarding the Isle of Dogs Canine Grooming System.
The Isle of Dogs Canine Grooming system is specifically designed to treat each
dog's unique coat and offers a wide variety of products. Come join us for the
event to learn more about this great product line.
 We
love this event, and we hope you do to! Come to the
Third Ward and enjoy all the shops, restaurants, bars and galleries
the neighborhood has to offer. Metropawlis will be serving
refreshments from 5 to 9 pm on Friday evening and 10 am to noon
on Saturday. Bring your pooch to enjoy a special doggie
birthday cake, in honor of our First Anniversary in our new
store location! Don't miss out on the free parking in the
Third Ward--for details visit
the HTW site.
VIPs will receive 25% off our Pop Dog Art collection during this
event. Come see these unique, fun pieces of art painted by Gloria Lee. POP DOGS
are created by hand with each dog breed given careful consideration to its
unique expression, color and personality.
April is Pet First Aid Awareness Month and Metropawlis has great new products to
assist you with keeping your pet safe. Plus, we're offering VIP savings to help
you keep your pet safe and healthy!
Our mini first aid kit is great for those who are on the go with their pets and
can be easily clipped to your belt for easy access. We sought out a first aid
product that is practical and affordable so that you could buy two – one for
your home and one to throw in the car so you’re always prepared for an
emergency.
We also have a larger First Aid Kit that contains over 40
veterinarian-recommended items packed in a waterproof canvas case. Each kit also
contains a first aid booklet. First Aid Booklets for Cats and Dogs are also
available for purchase. VIPs will receive 50% off the first aid book with the
purchase of one of the first aid kits.
 Performance
Toys: Always searching for a durable, long lasting pet toy? Try our
new Performance toys. These natural rubber toys are durable and tough, and are
hollow to fill with rewards or training aids. If your dog likes to fetch, try
our Performance Stick.
Sea Creature and Cosmo toys: With molded rubber heads, tough
nylon bodies and squeakers, they’re sure to become one of your dog’s favorite
toys! Throw them, bounce them and squeak ‘em.
Playhen Henrietta: Looking for a fun toy that will please your
dog as well as your sense of humor? There’s a new chicken in town: Playhen
Henrietta! Henrietta and her companion Earl have been big hits at Metropawlis,
so check out Playhen Henrietta before she flies the coop!
Easter Party Collars: Add a little fou fou to your pet this
Easter with our chicks and bunnies party collars! Party collars are an easy way
to accessorize your pet for the holiday.
Easter Three Amigos Dog Treats: Don’t forget the dog when you’re
making up the Easter baskets! New this year are individual Easter egg treats,
Peanut Butter Bunny Bites, and chick and bunny gift sets in Easter themed gift
baskets – perfect for your pet or for a hostess gift for a dog lover!
Easter Ideas for Kitties: Our new Hypno Mice and Rock’n Mice
will make a great addition for your cat’s Easter basket. The Rock’n Mice teeter
and roll back and forth at the bat of a paw. Each catnip mouse is covered in
soft fur that cats love to play with, and features a hard plastic, weighted
bottom to keep it popping back up. Hypno Mice call cats to play with a playful
rattling sound and bold colors entwined in a cool, swirled design.

Here's a tip: Many folks stick to Water and Broadway Streets when seeking
parking, but there's a lot more parking to be found just a block or two to the
east, on Milwaukee and Jefferson Streets. There are also three lots and
structures within a couple blocks:
- Milwaukee Public Market Lot: The entrance to the parking lot behind
the MPM is off of Water Street, between St. Paul and Clybourn. You can park
free for the first hour six days a week, and parking is free in this lot all
day on Sundays.
- Parking Garages: The Third Ward has two large parking garages
available for visitors. These can be found on the northeast corner of
Milwaukee & Chicago Streets (212 N. Milwaukee St.) and the southeast corner of
Water & Chicago Streets (225 E. Chicago St.
