Pups pose at the New York Easter parade | thepupdiary.com

What fun it is to stroll along Fifth Avenue in Easter bonnets and fancy dresses with doggy friends!  The annual New York City Easter parade brings out thousands of people for an afternoon stroll where the streets are closed to traffic between 49th and 57th Streets.  Cameras flashed all around us.  We have never seen so much puparazzi!  We were lucky to have our stroller so we could weave through the crowds without getting stepped on.  We had a doggy lunch in Central Park and then dessert at the Tribeca Grand Hotel.  A pawfect ending to a pawfect day!  Check out some of our Easter parade photos!

Bay Shore canine training facility, Doggie U, transformed their 13,000-square foot building into a Black Tie for Paws doggy party venue benefiting two great organizations, Shelter Link and Almost Home Animal Rescue this past weekend. Complete with red carpets, Puparazzi Pet Photography, live entertainment, and a dinner buffet for humans and canines — the second annual event was a hit!

The Life is Grruff doggy treats were delicious!  Especially the Liverlicious!  (And we are picky when it comes to biscuits!)  There was a great variety of over 50 raffle baskets. We won three baskets of goodies!  The highlight of the evening was the fashion show.  Celebrity judges Tanya Lee, Lori Stuck Zegel, and Tom Climi watched over 30 pups rock the runway in their designer duds.  Ms. Lee, publisher of  Gem Magazine, was a fan of our “gem” doggy dress.  We won third place!

We found the perfect doggy sweater at Bark Baby Bark’s fall fashion show, so we knew we didn’t want to miss their trunk show at D Pet Hotels in Chelsea this past weekend. What is the perfect doggy sweater? It’s machine washable, not too heavy, a cute pattern, full coverage, and a great price. Their designer definitely knows what she is doing!

Furry fashionistas gathered at D Pet Hotels for food, fashion, raffle prizes, and adoptable pups from the Mayor’s Alliance for NYC’s Animals.  We loved the Yappy Treats Cart doggy frozen yogurt!  We posed with pet expert, Ali McLennan and mom asked her about future grooming.  D Pet Hotel has a great spa menu including a “pop of color” for an additional $15.  That would have been pawfect for St. Patrick’s day!
