Taffy is an 11 year-old rescue beagle mix who currently lives in Midtown Manhattan. She’s the best guide in New York. She roams the city in her spare time and she’s in Central Park every single day. So the park is practically her front yard.

In fact, New York is her favorite city in the world, and Central Park is probably her favourite place. It’s a skip and a hop from her home after all.

And when she’s not patrolling Central Park, you’ll probably find her hanging out with the New York Police Department (NYPD). Yes, she’s a well-connected dog with friends in high places. So you know who to call if you find yourself in trouble in New York.

Taffy also loves window-shopping at New York’s best department stores. She’s often at Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman’s, where she’s always welcomed like a regular. Just like every other true New Yorker, she’s a shopper and she’s always on the look-out for sales.

Taffy is known as the “official” Beagle Instagram tour guide of New York City. Her regular routine involves patrolling the city and going to the most famous places in Manhattan. Occasionally she’ll venture outside Manhattan too. We’ve seen photos of her across the bridge and tunnel, and even in the Bronx.
