The Newport Canine Couture Show
June 7 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 PM
*POSTPONED*
The Newport Canine Couture Show is back, and it’s more fetching than ever! Hosted in partnership with the Potter League for Animals, this beloved dog fashion show returns to the historic Rough Point with a new flair and the same tail-wagging fun.Inspired by Doris Duke’s love of animals (yes, she lived with dogs, cats, and even camels!), the evening celebrates our furry companions in true couture style. Many of Doris Duke’s pets were adopted from the Potter League, making this partnership as meaningful as it is fabulous.
