On Monday, dogs in Staten Island will be joined by Josh, the best- in-show dog at the Westminster Kennel Club, for the first Pooches for Parkinson's walk. The walk is to raise money for Parkinson's research. It's sponsored by New York Save, which helps low-income New Yorkers whose pets need emergency veterinary care, and the American Parkinson's Disease Association. Joining the walk will be American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Special Agents Joe Pentangelo and Joe Romano, who star in the Animal Planet series "Animal Precinct." The walk will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. along the Boardwalk Promenade at Midland Beach in Staten Island.
