About 100 dog fans attended a fundraising event that included vendors, animal rescue organizations, a live DJ and an auction with prizes valued at more than $3,000. Costumed dogs competed in multiple categories on the red-carpet runway. Pups on the Plaza was conceived and coordinated by Sally Ott and Stacy Beck of Illustrated Properties, with help from Plaza del Mar, DogzBag and Extraordinary Photography by Tina Valant. Proceeds benefited Lantana beautification and local pet rescues. ABOVE: Artist Colleen Thompson adds the finishing touches to a portrait of her dog, Roger.
