Tori Spelling and friends visit the Playboy Mansion to save a pooch

Some of Hollywood's most famous animal lovers popped over to the Playboy Mansion on Saturday for Much Love animal rescue's "Bow Wow WOW!" fundraiser.

Tori Spelling, whose Mimi La Rue fund helps Much Love rescue sick and injured animals, was joined by a star-studded guest list that inclued Amy Smart, Paula Abdul, Antonio Sabato Jr., Bridget Marquardt, Dean McDermott, Deanna Brooks, Denise Richards, Kate Walsh, Jerry O'Connell and Rebecca Romijn among others.

Tori wasn't the official hostess, but the fund she established to honor her beloved pug who recently died has drawn a lot of attention to the shelter.

Much Love's honorary board of directors has so many A-listers it looks like a casting director's wish list: Drew Barrymore, Lake Bell, Jessica Biel, Julie Bowen, Tyne Daly, Kristen Davis, Johnny Depp, Joyce Ferraro, Janeane Garofalo, Pam Grier, Tea Leoni, Kevin Nealon, Caroline Rhea, Andy Richter, Bob Saget, Jonathan Silverman, Sherry Stringfield, Charlize Theron and Mary Tyler Moore.

Nice to see celebs helping underdogs.
