This unique fund-raiser for both two and four legged animals will be chaired by philanthropist Patricia Wallace, a lifelong supporter of animal rights. Her two dogs, Chloe and Hanna, and four cats reside with her and husband Milton in Coral Gables.
Set at Jungle Island for the second year in a row, this fun event to benefit Humane Society of Greater Miami Adopt-A-Pet, offers one-of-a-kind entertainment, music, food and fashion. Miami’s most influential pet-loving philanthropists will gather, many with their pets, for an evening of glamour and fun. All four-legged guests will enjoy pampering, doggie make-overs, an ice cream bar and a gourmet buffet. The highlight of the event is the “Great Pets Who Walk in Front of Great People” show where select guests and their dog(s) will be featured on the runway.
