Society Paws Awards

Dogs in Dresses!

I had the distinct pleasure of attending the First Annual Society Paws Awards this past weekend. In fact I got to present three awards and it was a lot of fun! The event was spearheaded by Bobbi Mitchell. Its purpose was to benefit Yorkie 911 Rescue, and to provide a bit of early fall, afternoon fun.

There were twelve categories, I got to present awards to three winners: “Twitter Pawsonality,” best “Candid Pawtographer,” and “Long Distance New Yorker.”

The evening’s winners were:

Summer Strand (seen below with her pooch April Moon) won the “Adah Challenger” award. This award honors ​the person who is “nice, follows and comments on just about everything in the doggie community, posts pictures of their furbabies, and is an all-around loving person in the doggie community.”

    A great post about the event and some great fun pictures too.
    I was there also. Tons of fun for the local NY/LI (and beyond) dog community.
    I was a nominee in the Professional Pawtographer category and came ready to party, but when the event photographer got ill and couldn’t make it, Being a photographer, I was asked at the last minute if I could fill in and I was happy to help. I’ll be posting the pictures on my Facebook page over the next day or two. If you or any of your readers would like to see the pictures, go ahead and “like” the page, make sure you click ‘get notifications” and you will be notified when I post the pictures. and you will get notified when I post the pictures.
