Dog Lovers Alert: The Bark and Whine Ball is a blast

Annual fundraiser for SPCA lets Fido get formal

Hey, dog lovers, you're in for a treat! This event requires a bridge toll, but its well worth it. The Bark and Whine Ball is always a blast, as pet lovers  dress up their doggies and dance to a full orchestra. I've been going for the past two years, and I look forward to the event in a big way. So does my girlfriend, and her coonhound Henry—our first date was the 2006 Bark and Whine Ball. Info below:

(CLAW) hosts the 13th Annual Bark & Whine Ball benefiting The San Francisco SPCA

CLAW (Critter Lovers at Work), a volunteer fundraising arm of The San Francisco SPCA, presents the 13th Annual Bark & Whine Ball, a tail-wagging evening for human guests and their elegantly attired canine companions. The event features a delectable cocktail buffet from McCall Associates, dancing to the paw and toe tapping music of Dick Bright’s Orchestra and a fabulous silent auction. Experienced SF/SPCA staff and volunteers provide canine walking and “rest room” assistance. The Bark & Whine Ball is the friskiest event of the year with a red carpet greeting for all attendees. Proceeds from the Bark & Whine Ball benefit The SF/SPCA’s Cinderella Fund, which provides special treatment and medical care for the neediest animals in the community.
