Furry fashionistas are no doubt were wagging their tails in anticipation of Pet Fashion Week that kicked off late last month in Vancouver. The one-day inaugural event saw Olympic athletes manning the leashes as local dogs showcased the latest in canine couture.

Whenever possible, the human models were dressed in styles that complemented their four-legged counterparts, explains organizer and founder, Olympia Devine. "The event was quite a success with Vancouverites", she explained adding it will eventually expand to seven days. "We are pet-crazy," says Divine, who has a rescued Chihuahua. "We are a city of animal lovers."

Admission to the event was free with donations for SAINTS, an animal shelter that cares for seniors or special needs pets, were accepted at the event.
