Denise Flaim, a Newsday staffer since 1994, covers companion animals – not pets -- every Monday in her Animal House column. Denise is owned by two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and is involved in breeding, conformation (code for "dog shows"), lure-coursing (don’t worry, no one else knows what that is, either), obedience, agility and therapy-dog work. She is the historian of the Rhodesian Ridgeback Club of the United States, and author of "The Holistic Dog Book: Canine Care for the 21st Century" (Wiley, 2003) and "Getting Lucky: How One Special Dog Found Love and a Second Chance at Angel’s Gate" (Stewart, Tabori and Chang, 2005).

Bobbi says ... BOO!

Bobbi & the Strays holds its annual Halloween party and fund-raiser on Thursday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m. at Russo's on the Bay in Howard Beach.
Planned for this year's spooky celebration: a live auction for the celebrity jewelry of Cher, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable and Tom Cruise.  In attendance will be actor Joseph Gannascoli (he played in-the-closet Vito Spatafore on  "The Sopranos," and now has his own line of marinara sauce) and "Goumba Johnny," the WKTU deejay.
For more information, call 718-845-0779, or email Bobbicares1@aol.com.
Costume is optional. How many brindle whippet lookalikes you figure will attend?

Comments

I wish I were in New York. I talked to Bobbi a while back, and they desperately need to raise money. If you live there, please try to go and help them. Bobbi is always so receptive to helping us in any way when I have talked to her. She is a good gal!

Bobbi accepts donations from all-not just NYers ;-)She has raffles that you can buy for this event to win prizes. Or one can be very generous and buy a ticket even if they do not live in NY-just donate the money!
She is a sweetheart and this is such a good cause.

Denise- thank you for posting this.

Any news or sightings of Vivi this week?
