Dog’s in Tuxedo’s? ...

by Nancy E. Hassel, LIPetPlace.com

If you haven’t heard by now the 2nd Annual Black Tie for Paws is coming up this Saturday, March 23, 2013 at 6pm – midnight, hosted by Doggie U K9 Academy in Bay Shore, NY. (41 Saxon Avenue).

This year we have a bunch of new talented dog acts as part of our entertainment, live band, lots of dancing, great food & refreshments for the humans and doggies alike and of course the Pet Fashion Show – where anyone can enter their dog into the show and walk the runway!

We have 3 guest judges from Long Island for the Pet Fashion Show, Gem Magazine Publisher Tanya Lee, Suffolk County Legislator Tom Climi and Nook & Cranny Gift Boutique owner Lori Stuck Zegel!!  Also tons of pawesome raffle baskets and much more….don’t forget the red carpet, step & repeat and photo’s from 6-9pm by none other than ThePuparazzi!

This fun filled benefit will benefit TWO amazing rescue groups that work locally here on LI with animals in our shelter, Shelter Link and Almost Home that help in the community, educate and offer many programs to help homeless and owned pets.  How cool is that? A joint benefit – we loved to see people work together!

Tickets are on sale here, and are $10 extra the night of, so you can purchase tickets online or head to Doggie U K9 Academy and purchase your tickets directly on site and save.

Cocktail attire or Black Tie attire is requested for you and your pups!!  People from all over LI are expected as well as many of our NYC, Brooklyn, Queens Pet people too!

You may have seen the News 12 coverage about it last week or some of the press about the upcoming event too!  This is great event that helps two wonderful groups – we hope you can join us in helping them continue to do what they do by attending this event!!

Oh and did we mention the gift bags for attendees as a thank you for coming? Nice!
