Dogs, Owners To Strut Stuff On Catwalk

Paws For Style Event Benefits Humane Society

POSTED: 8:29 am CDT July 15, 2008

NEW YORK -- Forget haute couture, this is hound couture.

There's going to be a doggie fashion show in New York on Tuesday night.

The Paws for Style event raises money for the Humane Society.

Co-host Wendy Diamond is Animal Fair magazine's editorial director and a judge on CBS' "Greatest American Dog." She said she usually doesn't go for dogs dressing up, but she makes an exception for the charity event.

Celebs and their oh-so-fashionable pooches will wear matching outfits. The doggie duds and human clothes will be auctioned on eBay.

Standing-room tickets for the event go for $100, and tables can cost up to $5,000.
