Worth Avenue Association presents America's Top Dog Models Awards and Holiday Extravaganza

Pets and their owners are invited to a free event billed as "a dog day affair with holiday flair" on Saturday, Dec. 8, on Worth Avenue in Palm Beach.

The "America's Top Dog Models Awards and Holiday Extravaganza" will take place 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Gucci Courtyard on the south side of the street.

Co-sponsored by the Worth Avenue Association of merchants, the event will begin with winners of the 2007 America's Top Dog Models Contest and their owners arriving via limousine for interviews on a red carpet prior to receiving their awards.

The festivities also will include Santa Claus, who will pose for photographs with pets. In addition, Craft Gallery will offer "pawtographs," a technique that allows an animal's pawprints to be transferred to a clay tile.

The event will also include holiday music, refreshments, drawings and pet gift ideas for the upcoming holiday season.

Select activities and gifts will be available at a nominal charge to benefit the Palm Beach Zoo.

"The Worth Avenue Association is just howling over the excitement that is being built up for this unique event," says Worth Avenue Association President Sherry Frankel of Sherry Frankel's Melangerie. "We always host holiday happenings on the avenue, but this is the first time a seasonal event is geared to all things animal."

In March, Worth Avenue was the site of a preliminary competition for the America's Top Dog Model Contest, now in its third year. Finalists competed for a chance to be pictured on a national calendar along with other prizes that included a feature story in New York Dog and Hollywood Dog magazines.
