Schmitty The Real New Yorkie Presents The Petzlife Piano Bar!

I am so excited to be the four legged host of the PetzLife Piano Bar at the pet friendly New Yorker Hotel during the Westminster Dog Show festivities. Join us in the lobby of the famous New Yorker Hotel and howl/sing along with the one and only PianoWeatherMan Ron Trotta at the piano.

Weatherman, Piano Player . . . I'm so confused! Arf-Arf!

You may know PianoWeatherMan Ron aka Meteorologist Ron Trotta from my daily Schmitty Weather Reports at www.GottaVisitNYC.com, www.schmittysays.com and www.petchat.com. Who knew that not only is Ron a wise & wacky weatherman, but also a raconteur and terrific tickler of the ivories. Whatever that means. Even if you can’t carry a tune, it’s the perfect place to listen to some fab tunes and people & pup watch during Westminster Dog Show week.

The Petzlife Piano Bar will be rockin’ from 7-10 PM on Thur/Fri/Sun/Mon/Tues (Feb 11th-15th) at the New Yorker Hotel across from Madison Square Garden on 8th Ave between 34th & 35th.

Also, plan on stopping by the YTCA (Yorkshire Terrier Club of America) Show. I will once again have my “New Yorkie” booth along with other fun booths on the 2nd floor balcony of the New Yorker Hotel at the entrance of the YTCA Specialty Show. Come meet me and my pesky sister, Pudge and check out my “New Yorkie” stuff. And meet the famous Dr. Ashok Patell, who created the natural Petzlife products for us pup’s teeth. He and his Petzlife friends will be there to talk about the care of us pup’s teeth. Trust me, I know how important it is to take care of our teeth.

Visit my New Yorkie booth on the 2nd floor balcony during the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America Specialty Show on Fri/Sat/Sun (Feb 12-14th) from 8am-6pm.

And Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 15th and 16th, a must do is visiting the benching area of the Westminster Dog Show. It’s fun to sniff around and shake paws with all different breed of dogs. Meteorologist Ron Trotta will leave his piano at the New Yorker Hotel and together we will be doing The Schmitty Weather Reports behind the scenes at Westminster. I’ll also be reporting the doggie activities on my GottaVisitNYC.com blog too.

Check out the breeds at the benching area of the Westminster Dog Show at Madison Square Garden Mon/Tues (Feb 14th & 15th) from 8AM-8PM.

So, be a good dog and mark it down on your calendar. Valentine’s Day. Check. Petzlife Piano Bar. Check. New Yorkie Booth. Check. Westminster Dog Show. Check. A fun time will be had by all!

Arf-Arf,

Schmitty The Real New Yorkie

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window Raising?

Schmitty and Lee’s Art Shop have teamed up to raise money for pets in need through the sales of Schmitty’s Healthy Do’s and Don’ts 2010 calendar.

New York City (Nov. 23, 2009) Friday, December 4, celebrity pup Schmitty the Real New Yorkie and pet advocate Elly McGuire will be staging a “live-in” in the holiday window at LEE’S Art Shop at 220 West 57^th Street in Manhattan to raise money for NYC animal shelter Bobbi and the Strays. The New Yorkie in the Window holiday event will be streaming live on the web and via Twitter from @Schmittysay to raise awareness about pets in need.

Schmitty and Lee’s Art Shop have teamed up to raise money through the sales of Schmitty’s Healthy Do’s and Don’ts 2010 calendar and other “New Yorkie” goodies.

“Schmitty and Pudge will spend the day living in the window performing tricks and obedience drills to entertain the shoppers on busy 57^th Street,” says McGuire. “We will donate a dollar from every Schmitty calendar and New Yorkie hat, tote, plush and doggie tee sold at LEE’S and on-line at www.SchmittySays.com that day.”

David Steinberg, owner of LEE’S Art Shop says, “LEE’S Art Shop will happily match the money raised by Schmitty and Pudge during our ‘New Yorkie In The Window’ event.”
