'The Puppy Project' At East Hampton London Jewelers To Benefit ARF

Dogs, jewelry and drinks made Friday night a particularly tempting night for many Hamptons women who ventured to the London Jewelers boutique in East Hampton for a different kind of cocktail party. The Udell family's London Jewelers and the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons came together to host The Pet Project, a cocktail party where guests could get a buzz and adopt a puppy. A brilliant strategy that could lead to some big life altering additions. (And was banned in the West Village.)

The jewelery stored welcomed guests to participate in a silent auction, raffles, pet portraits by Ellen Silverberg, and jewelery and puppy shopping. Guests included Dr. Rhonda Parker, the State Chair of AVRAL, a handful of furry friends from the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons and many other invited guests. Representatives from the Animal Rescue Fund were in attendance to conduct the appropriate adoption procedure so guests could leave the event with their new pet.
