Velvet raises money, too

Remember Velvet, the black Lab credited with saving that group of climbers on Mount Hood in Oregon? A few of us debated the whole issue of canines on climbing trips...

Anyway, recognizing the public loved the story of Velvet the climbers are "using" her to draw people to a benefit, with money going to rescue groups. Fittingly, the shindig will be held at the Lucky Lab Beer Hall.

See video of Velvet here.
