The upcoming Pet Gala on May 19 will showcase dogs in extravagant outfits inspired by iconic figures. Louie, a Yorkie, will emulate rapper LL Cool J, while Gia, a Chihuahua, will honor the late Pope Francis. Owners Melissa Mercado and Gladys Rivera have creatively designed these fashionable looks for their pets, highlighting the unique blend of pet culture and high fashion. The event, hosted by Anthony Rubio, aims to raise funds for the AKC Museum of the Dog, with tickets priced at $300 to support this cause.
I saw the mural and knew I had similar items at home, so I thought it would be funny," Louie's owner, Melissa Mercado, told The Post.
With the passing of the pope, I thought it was a good idea," said Gia's owner, Gladys Rivera, whose fashion designer mom created the outfit.
