Yorkies – We’re #1 in Pet Friendly NYC!

by Schmitty on January 28, 2010

I can’t believe it!  Yesterday the AKC  named us Yorkshire Terriers the #1 most popular dog in New York -- for the second year in a row.   And get this -  the famous Gothamist said I had something to do with it.   How fun is that!

Now more humans will be ordering my  “New Yorkie” hats, my New Yorkie T-shirts, my New Yorkie  totes & toys and helping DOGS WHO CARE . . .  we-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e!    I’m so excited I could just  . . . p-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e!

So, what have you gotten your pup for Valentine's?   I'm just asking.

The Valentine Pups!

Speaking of Yorkies . . . Friday, Feb. 12th -- 14th, my sister, Pudge and I will have our “New Yorkie”  booth once again at the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America Specialty Show (bark that fast 3X’s) at the New Yorker Hotel.   This is the big show before the Westminster Dog Show.   Not only will we be shaking paws and selling our cool “new Yorkie” stuff and “Petzlife” to help your pup’s teeth -- but my weather partner, Meteorologist Ron Trotta will also be playing playing piano at the Petzlife Piano Bar in the New Yorker lobby Friday night, Sunday night and Monday night too.   So, mark that on your calendar!  A good time will be had by all.   And keep checkin’ in for more details.

I'm a piano bar groupie!

As Meteorologist Ron Trotta would say, “Let’s talk about the weather.”   If you are coming to visit the Big Apple, make sure you dress warmly.  Today it was snowing big snowflakes in the morning and then it was sunny and blue skies in the afternoon.   Crazy!

The great thing about NYC is that no matter what the weather is in the winter -- their is always something to do.   Whether it’s checking out a museum, a Broadway Show,  or the YTCA and Westminster Dog Shows in Feb.  -- you can walk or ride to wherever you want to go.

The subway is magic.  You get on one place and you get off someplace else.

Remember, NYC is the city that never sleeps and it’s the city that never let’s a little snow or cold weather stop you from having fun.   Just make sure you check first to see if wherever you are going is pet friendly.    If it’s not, make plans for your pup to be safe and warm in the hotel or wherever you’re staying.    Just like humans we should never be left out in the cold or in a car in the winter.   Although I know some humans who always seems to be left out in the cold about a lot of things -- but that’s a different story.  Arf-Arf!

Gotta go practice “Doggie In the Window”  . . .

Arf-Arf,

Schmitty
