NEW ROCHELLE, NY — A runway show with all the glitter and glamour of New York fashion week came to Westchester this week, but the models were way more interested in treats than fame and fortune.

The high fashion fun was part of the new "Summer Series at Clinton Park" sponsored by RXR. In this case, the champagne and canapés were replaced with water dishes and Milk Bones, but there was still plenty of intrigue and drama in the plaza.

One of the models shamelessly tried to curry favor with a celebrity judge from the Gentlemen's Lab men's grooming studio. Another model, who should have been practicing his runway walk, was instead caught eyeballing the complimentary treats from Casaroma Cafe that were clearly for attendees.

Everyone who came out was a winner at this special canine fashion show, but the top dogs went home with prizes and bragging rights at the dog park.

For cutest costume, "Deyrolle" was named the next top model, to the delight of owner Lisa.
The "Funniest Costume" category went to Asal and owner Zhara.
The winners didn't let the accolades go to their furry heads. As the DJ played on and the aftershow party started in earnest, there wasn't a tail in the house that wasn't wagging.
