Join us for an afternoon of greyhound fashion including a prize draw and silent auction. Greyhounds have thin skin and a single layer of fur. They need clothing. Adopted greyhounds will be strutting the catwalk to model the functional and fashionable clothes that their families have chosen for them.

Advance purchase $15 for adults and $10 for children under 13. (At the door, prices will be $20 and $15). Each entry receives one ticket for the prize draw; additional raffle tickets can be purchased at the venue. Silent auction items will be available for a minimum bid of $50.

The Sixty6 is the nightclub venue attached to the Christchurch Casino. This event is wheelchair accessible - just go into the main entrance of the casino and ask the staff to use the elevator.

***Only the greyhound models are allowed into the venue; please come, but leave your dog at home***

This fundraiser is being organised by Kathleen Crisley from The Balanced Dog, who provides care for dogs using massage, acupressure, laser, trigger point and food therapies.
