…did you know he was a rescue?<\/span>

<\/span>
Uggie is a star! he even got his own seat at the Oscar ceremonies and he was loaned not one but two gorgeous custom made, bone-shaped pendants in 18k gold (one complete with black tie and second more casual leather version) by the exclusive 150 yr old Swiss Jewelry House of Chopard!<\/span>

<\/span>
Following the award show the Oscar version will be auctioned off to benefit the <\/span>Amanda Foundation<\/a>, a Los Angeles\u2013based animal rescue group.<\/span><\/span>
