This brings new meaning to getting cozy with your pet! This Saturday, October 21st, Desperate Housewives star Nicollette Sheridan is rumored to be dining on pooch food to launch the new California incentive. Yes, I’m holding my stomach as I’m typing this…

The “I’ll be back” Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger has declared Saturday, “Dine With Your Dog Day” and he has teamed up with Eight is Enough actor Dick Van Patten‘s Natural Balance dog food company Natural Balance in the hope of showing dog lovers how delicious pet chow can be. Um, why do we need to know this?

Sheridan will launch the bizarre statewide day on Thursday, October 19th at the Hyatt Regency hotel by dining with her dog Oliver at a celebrity event, which will also be attended by fellow dog lovers including Linda Blair and Annabeth Gish.

A Dine With Your Dog Day spokesman said, “It’s a fun initiative aimed at raising funds and awareness for state animal charities like Linda Blair’s animal rescue group. “The stars won’t actually be eating dog food. Natural Balance’s meals are like stew.”

Really! So instead of opening up a can of Dinty Moore we should open up cans of Natural Balance? Oy!
