The event had to be re-scheduled twice as a result of the Covid pandemic, but because it is so important, South Hills Pet Rescue finally came up with a solution. Its Bags & Bling Purse Bash fundraiser will take place October 3 at the South Park Clubhouse, 2200 Brownsville Road, at the facility's large, outdoor lot.

Kelly Backo, who helps plan events for Pet Rescue, explained how the process will work: people who purchase a $40 ticket will automatically be entered into a drawing for one of eight high-end purses, and pieces of Swarovski crystal jewelry, as well as upscale door prizes. Purses include such name brands as Coach, Burberry, Fendi, and Kate Spade, all in the $800 to $900 range. Backo said the purses are purchased with donations, with Toyota of South Hills being a big sponsor of the event.

Patrons will also have the opportunity to buy additional tickets for basket raffles, which will include baskets with such themes as wine, gardening, fall, Italian, and kids' toys, among others. "And of course there are dog baskets," Backo said.

She said those who purchase tickets will do a quick walk-through — no idling will be permitted. There will also be an opportunity to bond with dogs who are available for adoption. The event will run from 12 – 4 p.m., and after people have returned home, a live drawing for the prizes will take place at 4:15 p.m. on the South Hills Pet Rescue Facebook page.
