Inaugural All About The Animals 501©(3) Highly-Anticipated Homeless To Haute Gala Sunday September 18...Tickets Going Fast!

On the evening of Sunday September 18, 2016, beginning at 5:00pm, All About the Animals is hosting a

high-profile inaugural Gala to benefit homeless pets, at the spectacular five-star Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, Orange County.

Adoptable pooches will be strutting their four legs down the runway with celebrity and model friends alike, dressed in the latest fashions, including luxurious Vegan shoe designs by Mink, hand crafted designer pet attire by Lola and Pooch, dazzling dresses by Noell Store, dapper suits by Friar Tux, and stylish pet attire by Dogma OC. The critters are hoping to demonstrate that rescue dogs can be glamorous and stylish; transforming from Homeless, to Haute.

Dana Point resident and twelve-year-old actress Emmy Perry (Wiener Dog Internationals), one of the youngest philanthropists making a difference with her own animal welfare organization "Emmy's Hope", is also walking the catwalk with Merf the adorably adoptable 2lb Chihuahua. National Youth Ambassador for The American Humane Association and actor Lou Wegner, who among his many credits appeared in Trouble With the Curve starring Clint Eastwood, Amy Adams, and Justin Timberlake, is also participating as a model during the event. Wegner is also founder of his non-profit, Kids Against Animal Cruelty (KAAC) which now has more than 50,000 members that are active in animal issues including banning puppy mills, closing down shelter gas chambers, the importance of spay/neuter and wildlife. Jasmine Star Dustin, who appeared in the movie Rush Hour 3 and TV show Doheny Models is also joining the professional models featured in the fashion show.

Celebrity special guests attending the gala include Alison Eastwood, who followed in the footsteps of her famous father, Clint Eastwood, becoming an actress and director as well as a prominent animal rights advocate; Simone Reyes who is perhaps best known for her appearance on Reality TV Show Running Russell Simons’ as well as from her numerous media appearances for her advocacy of animal rights and veganism; Michelle Harris from the TV show Alive and Well with Michelle Harris; Summer Helene, the host of the radio show Behind the Scenes, an insiders’ guide to Hollywood; and Lorelei Shellist who was a longtime graceful and spirited muse for such noted fashion designers as Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix, Bob Mackie, Geoffrey Beene and Giorgio Armani among others.

The All About The Animal: Homeless to Haute Gala also includes a sumptuous three course dinner and three drinks, a performance from star of Netflix and the Late Late Show comedian Steve Trevino, live music at the drinks reception, a silent auction and more: all for a partially tax-deductible ticket price of $180.00.

During the gala, Social Compassion in Legislation (SCIL) will be recognized for all that they do for animal welfare advocacy. SCIL's founder, Judie Mancuso, is also running for City Council of Laguna Beach to help both human and non-human residents of Laguna Beach. Angels n Paws will also be awarded “Rescue of the Year 2015”. Both recipients will also receive a Certificate of Recognition from the California Assembly, courtesy of Assemblyman Mike Gatto's Office.

”We are pleased to honor San Bernardino based rescue group Angels n Paws which took a backwards step after the ranch suffered severe damage recently due to being in the pathway of the Blue Cut fire,” said Laura Jones, CEO of All About The Animals who oversaw the concept and planning of this must-go-to event. “Proceeds from the gala will help them to get back on track to saving many animals' lives from the high kill shelters within Southern California.”

The event, presented by Martinez Trucking and Logistics and Davies Wegner Law along with other generous sponsors, is not only sure to be a great deal of fun, but is also for an incredibly worthwhile cause; to save and enrich the lives of abused, abandoned, neglected and unwanted pets in Southern California and beyond.
