Animal lovers in New York City came out to Vintage Irving recently to donate toys to homeless dogs and have their pooches take a picture with Santa at Animal Fair Magazine’s 3rd Annual Toys for Dogs Party. Celebrity dog lovers also came out to support Toys for Dogs and shoot a portion of Animal Fair's upcoming PSA, "We are Dogs United" debuting early next year to help raise awareness for animal rescue and adoption. Celebrities supporting Toys for Dogs and appearing in the "We are Dogs United" PSA included Abigail Breslin, Glenn Close, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Richard Belzer, Piper Perabo, Joy Behar, Sheri Sheppard, John O'Hurley, Al Roker, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Jill Zarin and many more.
