Business leaders at the Mall at Fox Run in Newington know people love their pets, so they are going dog friendly and throwing a Yappy Hour to celebrate.
Eric Brasier, general manager of the mall, said on Monday morning that when he worked for Saks Fifth Avenue, people loved to bring their dogs in for the shopping experience.
"When I got here, I noticed it was service dogs only," Brasier said.
Brasier started working on a plan to get four-legged friends into the halls of the mall, and it still hasn't been formally announced, but the Mall at Fox Run will become dog friendly this month.
