Good Manners Tour



INTRODUCTION

National pet products expert and New York socialite Charlotte Reed is proud to announce the launch of her 11-city "Good Manners Tour." Starting in September, Charlotte will bestow her own celebrity panache to pet parents nationwide, ensuring that their dogs are just as envied as any A-List dog. The Good Manners Tour, a combination of Book Signings, Pet Fashion Shows, Social Pet Networking, and Pet Etiquette classes, will allow pet owners, pet spa and boutique owners and even, new pet parents the chance to learn the do's and don'ts of proper canine behavior. Tour sponsors include: W Hotels Worldwide; Martini & Rossi; Borders; BOODA, a brand of Aspen Pet Products, Inc.; Comfort Zone; Dyson; HALO, Purely for Pets; and Pup Gear Corporation.

As the author of the new book, The Miss Fido Manners Complete Book of Dog Etiquette, Charlotte will begin her tour on September 18th with a book signing at Borders at The Redmond Town Center followed the next day with an exclusive Pet Fashion Show and Social Pet Networking Soiree at the W SEATTLE. Some of the fashions being shown are from Buddy G's; Cloak and Dawggie; Creature Couture; Hip Doggie; Oscar Newman; Pet Flys; and Thayer and Ridge. She will then move to San Diego, Atlanta, Chicago, Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Dallas, Los Angeles, Montreal and New York City.

Recognizing the trend of being well-mannered, Charlotte Reed has introduced petiquette classes to American dog owners concerned about making a good impression with their pampered pooches everywhere they go. The Good Manners Tour will serve as a finishing school primer by identifying the hottest pet fashions, luxury pet products as well as training and bonding techniques, so that pet owners can become model dog owners, excellent customers, exceptional hosts and welcomed guests at the homes of friends and family alike.


BORDERS APPEARANCES AND BOOK SIGNINGS

Is your dog pawfectly behaved? New York socialite Charlotte Reed believes that all dogs can be excellent companions if given a fair shake. Reed is the author of The Miss Fido Manners Complete Book of Dog Etiquette: The Definitive Guide to Manners for Pets & Their People. (ISBN#:1598691325) And, she and her English toy spaniel will be making appearance and signing books at Borders stores across the country as part of her Good Manners Tours.

At Borders stores, Charlotte will be reading a selection of short stories which promote the human-canine bond from her new book. Reed, who believes that dog culture like all cultures can be defined by the art of story-telling, is looking forward to sharing her canine tales with the book store's patrons.

When asked about the new book, Reed said, "More than a training book, Miss Fido… is a finishing school primer for your and your dog. The book explains how pet owners can conduct themselves with their dogs in a way that allows both of them to enjoy one another's company in all kinds of situations."

Additionally, the book features include tip boxes, illustrations, real-life examples, and helpful resources indispensable to the socially aware pet owner. To learn more about the book, please click here.
