OK, this is turning into a really busy weekend. Even my straight photographer is looking forward to the street party on Saturday, but there’s other fun stuff going on, besides what I already listed this morning.
Dallas Voice Senior Editor Tammye Nash and media personality Victoria Snee (one of our fave gay allies) will be judging the Growl-a-Week contest at the Foxy Paws pet boutique at the Shops at Willow Bend in Plano tomorrow from 2 to 3. The annual event is ador-licious with cutely dressed pooches competing for most ghoulish, best child-dog combo, etc. Proceeds benefit Operation Kindness. Check it out! It’s precious! See?!
Then on Sunday, Trading Spaces designer Frank Bielec will sign autographs and donate his artwork at Petoberfest, a fundraiser for animal rescue groups. Jack E. Jett will be broadcasting his Sunday radio program from the site at 3452 Foest Lane. The event goes from noon to 4 p.m., with demos, photo ops with your pet, “best of” contests and more.

Hi, Victoria! John No Dough here. I’m with Jack on his comment about going to see you for your legs. Good luck with your event. By the way, we’re also going to have special guest judge, Anne Lockhart (daughter of June Lockhart) and star of “Battlestar Galactica” – 1978-1979 season. Bring Jeff by, too.
