Today, I felt like a giant. The reason is because I hung out with lots of chihuahuas, shih tzus, yorkies and other small but magnificent dogs at Ada's Prima Dog shop in New York City as part of m 23-city national book tour. Wow - what a place. You MUST check out her store if you are in New York. Definitely worth a visit. What a night! I sold out on all my copies of Happy Dog, Happy You plus got entertained by Rick and his poker playing Yorkie named Jilli. I also chatted with Diane West, publisher of New York Tails as well as my pal, Dr. Jill Richardson, resident vet on zootoo.com.

Earlier in the day, I made a "catty call" at Dr. Arnold Plotnick's Manhattan Cat Specialists veterinary clinic where I signed copies of Happy Cat, Happy You. Dr. Arnie is one of the country's top cat veterinary specialists. He also does his part to adopt shelter kittens and cats from his clinic.

Paws up to Ada from Prima Dog and Arnie from Manhattan Cat Specialists for making my Big Apple tour stops a big success!
