This weekend I joined the jet-set-pet-set and headed to Philadelphia for the National Dog Show. It was the site of the climactic final episodes of the forthcoming Bravo series, Showdogs Moms & Dads. I can’t resist tossin’ you a bone.

Now, I may be a cosmopolitan hot dog, but this was my first dog show – and lemme tell you, I haven’t seen so many bitches working the runway since my favorite movie, Paris Is Burning. They even have a “best bitch” category. Paws for thought. Of course, I promised not to reveal any of the details of the filming, but my tail was waggin’ non-stop! The entire cast stayed at the same bed and breakfast. They laughed, they cried, they drank and wore lots of feather boas. As for the dogs, they were primped, pulled, and snatched – spoiled I tell you! There were 10 cameras filming all the time and I didn’t get a single close up! (Grrrrr) Apparently, supervising producer Todd Radnitz is only interested in following champions, not mutts like me. He doesn’t know a natural beauty when it’s staring him in the face (or pissing on his leg). Oh well. I’ll admit, though, that I had, um, a ball.

The series debuts this spring on Bravo. Meanwhile, I’ll be talking to my agent about getting my own show! Something along the lines of America’s Next Top Dog. I’ll be like Tyra Barks. Woof woof for now.
