Eat A Meal At A Long Beach Restaurant, Get A Free Ticket To AKC/Eukanuba National Championship

​

So it pleases me to tell you that if you are one, especially if you are a dog owner, restaurants in Long Beach will be participating in a "GOING TO THE DOGS" promotion from December 4 - 12, whereupon if you come to a participating restaurant and order a highlighted menu item*, you will receive a voucher for a free ticket ($20 value) to the 2009 AKC/Eukanuba National Championship for every order of that item.

The two-day competition and exhibition features, you guessed it, dogs.

It's presented by Animal Planet and will be held at the Long Beach Convention Center December 12 and 13.

Among the restaurants participating are some we have reviewed on our pages, including Michael's on Naples.

Read on to see the others:

Michael's On Naples, P.F. Chang's, Johnny Rockets, Gladstone's, Boston's, Bono's, L'Opera, Madison, Alegria, La Creperie, Lucille's BBQ, Open Sesame, Taco Surf, Aroma di Roma, Café La Strada, Legends, Magic Lamp, Crème de la Crepe, Lotus Café, Buono's Pizzeria, It's A Grind, Rock Bottom, Extreme Pizza, Natraj, Yen Sushi, BJ's Pizza, George's Greek Café, Bouchee's Bistro, Phuket Thai and Stefano's Pizza.

*Psst, I'm sure the item you need to order will NOT be dog food.
