All dogs have beards – or so say the Austin Facial Hair Club, organizers of this longstanding charity event at The Little Darlin’. It’s a fact that’s frankly new to me and my greying pit-mix, but now I see she does sort of have a silver goatee. Enter your canine companion for a chance to win in the Dog & Owner Look-Alike contest, Best Groomed, Gnarliest Beard, Sweetest Stache, or Freestyle categories, which welcomes beard and mustache stylings of all colors and complexities. Entry fees and raffle raisings benefit local animal charities, and families, friends, and even pup-less people are welcome. – Caroline Drew
