About 350 plus people showed up and enjoyed the good food provided by June Neptune from Tivoli Too!, and the great entertainment from Bob from American Mobile Music as he sang for the animals. His vocal tributes to all the classic singers were a big hit as the doggies dragged their humans onto the dance floor and barked along with him while they danced their hearts out!!

The volunteers did an amazing job taking care of everyone.

RUFF had some of their 3rd chance doggies there from the Irvine Animal Shelter to find good homes for. I know some of them were adopted, which was fantastic!!

Do not buy a dog, you can get any breed you want from a rescue, it’s the ONLY way to go.

Again, due to the recession the number of attendees was down from the usual.  If you would like to support, volunteer or donate to this wonderful charity please go to www.ruffrescue.org or call (949) 580-1092

This cutie is one of the rescue doggies looking for a home from the Irvine Animal Shelter.

Here she is again making out with one of the other doggies.

This is ‘Tommy’, he was adopted right away by one of the lovely volunteers. Lucky boy!!

Tommy made friends VERY quickly.

This is ‘Pinkerton’, sporting a blue print bandanna. He was also a rescue doggie looking for a home.

One of the lovely volunteers checking in a couple.

Keeping cool.

These are the wonderful Irvine Animal Shelter Volunteers.

This was the Easter Photo Booth, where all the doggies had their Easter photo taken.

Look at this face, is this a face!! This lovely little girl only has one eye as you can see, I don’t really know how she lost her other eye, so if anyone knows please leave me a comment.

So handsome!!

This little one is a regular.

Yes, a Chihuahuabeeeee!!!! Looks like a giant chihuahua, but that’s actually a closeup! Bob played “Immabee” by the Black Eyed Peas  and all the doggies got down, including Chihuahuabeeee : )

Do pets look like their owners??

Fuzzy wuzzy!

“I gotta sit down, my dogs are barking”.

Just so you know, next year there may be a “Best Costume Contest”.

“Get me outta here!!”

Easter photo shoot for the twins.

“Can you see me now??”

“mmmmmmmmm that smells good!”

A cross legged dog. : )

Finally, her Royal Highness arrived, walking the catwalk as she does so well. Actually, I’m not sure if she’s a boy or a girl. That dog in the background doesn’t seem to give a hoot that there’s a cat right in front of him!

What’s with the crossed legged dogs??

Bobby from Tivoli & some strange woman , no ……… me, Julie. Bobby has 2 pussy cats, Peety & Norman Bates, he couldn’t bring them coz there were too many knives  on the tables, and Norman gets a bit carried away!! : ) He even pulls the shower curtain off to the side while Bobby’s taking a shower, that’s true!

Tivoli Terrace has a very romantic gazebo where the wedding cake sits inside. On this particular day, I noticed right above the cake was a tiny little humming bird’s nest built right in a link of the chandelier chain. While Patty & Pamela were cutting their wedding cake together, the mommy humming bird flew around in circles just above them, wishing them good luck!!

I took some photos of the humming bird sitting in her nest, but they’re a little fuzzy.

Patty & Pamela, the ‘Happy Couple’.

See the little humming bird sitting in her nest! Sorry about being out of focus.

Patty & Pamela feeding each other wedding cake. That’s Bobby from Tivoli crouched down with the back of his head facing us…………..he’s coaching the girls, and being a bad influence!!

Bob has been entertaining at RUFF’S Easter Fund Raiser for 8 years during the brunch with his amazing tributes to all the classic singers such as Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Tony Bennett, Neil Diamond and Barry White, just to name a few. Then a little bit later on, he gets all the doggies and their companions out there on the dance floor, and he sings “What’s New Pussy Cat”, for all the cats, and plays “Who Let The Dogs Out”, for the doggies. Yes…………………… there is one particular cat who attends every year, and is so cute, he’s more like a dog!!!

A lot of people who attend this are regulars, they come every year as they have so much fun and are big fans of Bob, they get entertained while helping the animals.  There’s also a silent auction, plus the cutest puppies who need adopting.

But, due to the recession the number of attendees was down from the usual.  If you would like to support, volunteer or donate to this wonderful charity please go to www.ruffrescue.org  or call (949) 580-1092

Scroll down for some great shots I took, plus a video of the doggies dancing on the dance floor while Bob sings for them!!

Pretty in Pink!!

Yes……………..that’s a doggie!

Here’s a different view to prove it!

This is one of the puppies ’Coco’ who needs a home, and can you believe, he did NOT get adopted!!!

For those of you who have seen the commercial………”Roll that beautiful bean footage”!!!

Showing off her little orange bow and rose strand necklace.

I love the expressions on these doggies faces, the one in the back looks like he wants to go dance,  but is thinking, “I’ve shaved my back legs but, darn……. I forgot to shave my front ones!!!” The one in the middle, “What am I doing here??” The one in the front…………..”I could be riding in the car with my head out the window and my doggles on listening to Bob’s CD!”

These 2 attend every year………they are very loyal to RUFF.

So does she……………….another pretty in pink.

Yep……………that is a BIG dog handing out doggie biscuits, which were much appreciated.

From left to right Big Dog, Jose who’s telling him he needs to be on leash! Yesi and Javier. They work at Tivoli Terrace & Too! Except for Big Dog, he just made a guest appearance for the day.

Strike a pose……………..

Bob singing as the doggies begin to make their way to the dance floor………………everyone’s very…………happy!

Having fun singing along with Bob!

Exhausted after eating too much and dancing all day!!!!
