Schmitty The Weather Dog At Westminster-Part 2

by Schmitty on February 19, 2010

OK, where was I?   Oh yeah, my whirlwind week at Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

As I might have mentioned -- Meteorologist Ron Trotta and me, Schmitty The Weather Dog were asked to report the weather for all the people traveling to NYC for the WKC Dog Show. Just like Mary Anne who e-mailed us as she was driving from Chicago to the show with 17 dogs  (17 dogs!) -- weather was on everyone’s mind as they were coming, staying and going to the WKC Dog Show events this past week.   Glad we could help out.

Even David Frei, top dog and TV co-host for the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show joined us for our “Best of Show” weather report  and pics the last day of the show. That David, he’s one nice human!

I wonder if these show dogs ever have a bad hair day?

I wonder if Mr Frei needs a canine co-host?

There's something for everyone at the Westminster Dog Show!

Do these champs ever have a bad hair day?

Geez! Do these show pups ever have a bad hair day?

One thing I love about the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is the giving back.    Mr. Frei is also top dog of a non-profit organization, Angels On A Leash, that help create the best pup therapy programs to visit hospitals and healthy care facilities around the country.    How cool is that?   A four paws up for all the nice humans working to help bring canines for furry visits & smiles to folks in their time of need.

I'm gonna join Angels On A Leash just so I can hang out with this guy!

My weather sidekick, Meteorologist Ron Trotta was also tickling the ivories over at the New Yorker Hotel lobby for all the pups & people staying there for Westminster.   Who knew my weather partner was so talented.   Must be good training.   Arf-Arf!

Speaking of good training,  click below for a  song from a Pack of Pet- Friendly Purdue People at the PetzLife Piano Bar.   Bark that fast three times!

But wait -- there’s more!   Before the WKC Dog Show, my pesky sister, Pudge & I were shaking paws at the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America Specialty Show all weekend at my New Yorkie booth.   Forget the toy group.   I think Pudge & I should be in the Working Dog Group.  Arf-Arf!

This puparazzi is getting old.

I could go on and on.   But wait -- I think I did.   Arf-Arf!    Oh well, reserve your ticket and come join in the fun next year for a fun week of events for the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show here in NYC next February.   In the meantime,  keep coming back to www.GottaVisitNYC.com for more pet friendly things to do in NYC along with my wild and crazy NYC adventures & weather reports too.

Arf-Arf,
