The Blue Book

The Metropolitan Dog Club is pleased to announce the launch of a new magazine, The Blue Book. The magazine, named after the club’s colors, is an annual publication catering to an affluent group of dog owners and their pampered pets. The premiere issue will be published in the Winter of 2009 and will be widely available in New York City.

The first issue focuses on the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Like the founders of the Westminster Kennel Club, the ladies and gentlemen of the Metropolitan Dog Club are dedicated to increasing an interest in dogs. As a result, the first issue is an ode to the 133-year-old dog club, its celebration of purebred dogs, its appreciation of sportsmanship and its impact on the world dogs.

According to Metropolitan Dog Club President, Charlotte Reed, “We wanted to produce an educational resource guide for luxury and necessary dog information that would benefit all dog lovers, especially at this very special time of the year.”

Distinguished members of the dog world who are members of the “Metro” volunteered their time to help create a unique magazine that contains insights about canine art, dog culture, special events, health issues and the sport of showing dogs in the greatest city in the world.

Although the magazine will be directly distributed during Westminster Week (February 4–11, 2009), the magazine will be mailed to a variety of media outlets, pet businesses and animal organization at least one month prior to the annual dog show.

During Westminster Week, hundreds of dog fanciers and other influential dog lovers come from around the world to participate in and enjoy the second oldest sporting event in the United States and its supporting ancillary events. We encourage you to pick up a copy of The Blue Book at pet-friendly hotels, galleries, parties and charity events, including the Metropolitan Dog Club’s Best in Show Brunch at Charlie Palmer’s Metrazur restaurant in Grand Central Station.
