The actual birth dates of most shelter and rescue dogs are unknown, but every dog deserves a birthday - and a birthday party with plenty of spectacular dog toys and dog treats - maybe even a whole treat jar full.  

So North Shore Animal League America (www.animalleague.org),  the world's largest no-kill shelter, has graciously designated today "DOGust the First," a universal birthday for shelter and rescue dogs everywhere.  

To celebrate, the League's headquarters in Port Washington, New York, will be the venue for today's festive universal birthday party. The host is Beth Ostrosky, who is engaged to marry Sirius Radio star Howard Stern in October.

Those who can't make it to the event can express birthday wishes for their own rescued or adopted dog with a specially-designed "Happy DOGust the First" e-card greeting. There are three colorful e-cards to choose from, and all can be sent directly from North Shore's web site.
