The Puppy Love Project

The Puppylove Project asked 36 designers and artists to create something unique from a plasticene model of a bulbous-nosed, short-legged canine. The resulting brood will be auctioned beginning December 6, with 100% of the proceeds going to the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.

A tour of the kennel reveals puppies who are furry, fancy, and floral. One doggie called Charlie boasts over 500 Swarovski crystals and 1,000 sticks. Another, dubbed PFLIP, is festooned with computer hardware and electronic components. The appropriately named Goldy flaunts an entire coat of 24K gold leaf. You wouldn't want to leave these pups at the dog park.

Find your favorite, download a bid form, and you just may win a new baby to snuggle with by the fire while helping to fight cancer. And remember: You don't have to pick up after a plastic pooch.
