Pets Galore

Sunday afternoon, Julie and I ventured downtown (yes, all by ourselves!) to the annual Purina Pet Expo. We of course took her two puppies, who loved every second of the expedition! Sunday proved to be a cold, rainy day so the dogs warded off the chill with their favorite hoodies. Sadie, who hates every second of wearing clothes (she is afterall, a dog), did the "take-this-off-me-Mom" dance where she throws her back end up into the air and does a handstand. Unfortunately for her, the trick still doesn't get the clothes off, so we laughed for a second and then took it off for her! Gunnar is still too puppy-ish to even realize he's wearing anything, so the clothing isn't quite as traumatic. Regardless, both pups were completely elated to wander around a big building full of other fur-kids and sniff hundreds of butts!!

Julie and I also had a great time petting all the dogs, longing over adoption pets (kitties, puppies, bunnies and even a bird or two!), and picking up thousands of flyers and business cards at all the booths.

The four of us left exhausted, but happy. Looking forward to Pet Expo 2007!
