Brooklyn showed up in full sparkle this weekend as the one and only Chanel Valenti celebrated her 10th birthday—because of course a dog this fabulous deserves a party that borders on legendary. Hosted by her parents, Dominic and AnnaMaria, the celebration took over Garguiles Restaurant on Saturday night… and honestly, the place has never been cuter.
The Night in Review
From the moment guests walked in, it was clear this wasn’t some casual “dog birthday.” Chanel arrived looking like the tiny runway model she believes she is, and everyone else happily fell in line. The room was packed with love, laughter, pasta, and more than a few happy tears (Dominic held it together… mostly. AnnaMaria? Not a chance).
Garguiles delivered the perfect backdrop—warm lighting, incredible food, and the kind of cozy Brooklyn energy that makes a milestone like this feel even more special.
A Party With Heart
Yes, Chanel got her moment. Yes, she had her own dog-safe cake and treats. But the true highlight? The generosity. Instead of gifts, guests donated to AMA Animal Rescue (Angels for Mistreated Animals), making Chanel’s birthday a night that genuinely helped other animals who haven’t yet found their forever home.
Donations in her honor can still be made by mailing a check to:
AMA Animal Rescue

It was the kind of gesture that turned a sweet celebration into something meaningful.

The Vibe
Festive-casual ruled the night—sparkles, photos, pasta, hugs, and the kind of joy only a beloved family dog can inspire. Ten years of Chanel means ten years of unconditional love… and judging by the turnout, she’s given that love right back.
Here’s to Chanel Valenti:
Brooklyn’s tiniest icon.
The heartbeat of the Valenti home.
Forever the best-dressed guest in any room.
