Keep Westword Free
We’re $1,500 away from our spring campaign goal!
We’re aiming to raise $20,000. Your support ensures Westword can continue watching out for you and our community. No paywall. Always accessible. Daily online and weekly in print.
With the rise of doggy day spas and boutiques, spoiling our pets seems to have become a national pastime; however, there are still many folks who have a hard time affording medical care for their furry best friends. That’s where the Harrison Memorial Animal Hospital steps in. Harrison keeps low-income pet owners from having to choose between their pets’ needs and their own.
The hospital is supported by generous donations year-round, but its gala event is the annual Mutts & Models party. The 2007 version, being held tonight at the Tivoli Turnhalle, features a vintage Parisian theme, “Muttlin Rouge.” Clad in fashions from Saks Fifth Avenue, models (local philanthropists and media celebs) and their canine companions hit the runway at 8:45 p.m., giving the pampered pooches a chance to help out less fortunate pets.
The Tivoli is at 900 Auraria Parkway on the Auraria campus; doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets, which range from $65 to $1,000 for a table of eight, are available at www.blacktie-colorado.com or by calling Harrison at 303-722-5800, ext. 339.
Sat., April 28, 6:30 p.m.
