Thankful Thursday!

     Hi buddies! Mom's been busy attending different pet events, such as the New Yorkie Runway Fashion Show, the Super Pet Expo, then the Westminster Dog Show! Over the next few days, we'll be posting all the details!

    First on the list, we're very thankful this week that the Westminster Kennel Club has recognized the Treeing Walker Coonhound! Mom hopes that the exposure will help show off how wonderful we are, since sadly, there are so many of my sort are languishing in shelters in the southern states. Below is a clip she took at the judging ring. Please excuse the amateur camera work, this is her first iphone video, BOL!

       Hi buddies! Mom's so excited... It's just one more day fur the fabulous New Yorkie Runway Fashion Show! Mom's previous guest post about the New Yorkie Runway Casting Call was on BlogPaws.com. and she had such a great time watching all the very talented pups with their people.

        This is the third year, and this year's will be better than ever.

All of this to benefit the"Angel On A Leash" program.     
     The historic New Yorker Hotel will be the venue for the show. David Frei, the voice of Westminster and chairman of "Angel On A Leash," will emcee the event, showcasing NYC’s New Yorkie™new Spring line of pet apparel. And if the doggie fashion wasn't enough, there'll be plenty of celebrities too, such as:
  • Sonja Morgan and Carole Radziwill (Bravo TV's Real Housewives of New York City)
  • Ron Harper (Five time NBA Champion)
  • Logan West (Miss Teen USA 2012)
