Scottsdale venue to host luxury doghouse building competition

Local architects, interior designers and home builders are imagining what it’s like to be in the doghouse as they create unique shelters for pups to auction during the 10th annual Design for Dogs event benefitting the Arizona Animal Welfare League 5-9 p.m. Friday, Feb. 23, 2024, at the Facings of America Showroom, 16421 N. 90th St.

Ten teams have been commissioned to design, build and donate a swanky pet palace to the Design for Dogs event, where the homes will be auctioned off and compete for Best in Show. This year, each participating team has competed in a previous Design for Dogs event. The money raised at this event helps AAWL, the state’s oldest and largest no-kill shelter, put a roof over more than 4,000 homeless pets’ heads each year. The proceeds from the event will fund AAWL’s life-saving programs, including low-cost vaccine clinics, rural rescue efforts, and a community vet clinic.
