Official Yearly Animal Float For The Village Halloween Parade In New York City!!!

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 15, 2007 -
HOWL-o-ween…NYC Style

On Halloween Night, people and their dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, etc… from all over New York will gather at Spring Street & Sixth Avenue to again participate in the animal float for NYC’s famous Village Halloween Parade!  We invite all press to witness why our animals love NYC wearing their best Halloween costumes and to make record of this extraordinary event!

In 2006, Beth Joy Knutsen, her Bella Starlet Dog, and many friends made ‘PAWstory’ bedazzling the crowd with the first-ever dog float in the parade.  Jeanne Fleming, the parade’s Artistic Director, was so impressed with their creation that she has deemed Bella Starlet Dog and her friends the official yearly animal float of the parade!  Lauren Johnston of AMNY documented Beth & Bella’s float creation:

This year’s sponsors again include:

www.BellaStarletDog.com, www.StreetTreats.com, www.NewYorkTails.com (celebrating their 5th Anniversary).  We welcome our new sponsors: www.WestVillageVets.com (Tribeca-Soho Animal Hospital is their sister facility, celebrating their 25th Anniversary), and www.Q1043.com, who will be airing radio announcements for our float beginning one week prior to the parade.  Beth Joy and her colleagues offer great services to NYC’s animal community and are very well respected.

We are honored to have a spectacular guest co-marshal our float…DJ Maria Milito, who is an amazing animal advocate in NYC.  We also have Maddie of The Mayor’s Alliance joining us again along with the ASPCA, Bide-A-Wee, Stray From The Heart and many other shelter groups to help promote animal adoption and advocacy. There will be contest winners from the Tompkins Square Park Halloween Contest and more surprise guests with and without paws!
