Woofstock: 2011

Spending the Weekend out with the dogs is great fun for friends, family and of course the dogs. There are plenty of activities for the dogs and their masters. There was the dock dog competition, which is where the dogs run and jump into water and are measured how far they jump. It was a great for the dogs on this hot day. They also had sheep herding demonstrations. I think the kids liked that the most. There were tents set ups for dog products and services. Dog sitter services, grave site markers, tee-shirts and treats of all kinds. Not to mention horse painting where you can actually finger paint on a horse. The there was plenty of food to eat for the humans…lol The best for me was that I was able to get my schnauzer microchiped for 20 bucks just in case he ever gets lost. This usually is 30-40 bucks. It is a microchip they place under the skin that can be detected at vets and animal shelters. That way they can get information to let you know they found your dog. There was also a fly ball competition and a pet parade. We did the pet parade. We didn’t place in any of the competition classes but we did get in the paper. Well the dog did…and my leg. So I guess my leg is famous now….hehehe

Weird facts about my dogs- 2009 edition

just some weird facts about my critters...feel free to add yours!
Riley- is my OCD dog he is obsessed with having something in his mouth ie a rubber ball...he will bring you everything out of his toy box just to get you to throw something...so we have a toy box with a lid. Now he waits for smart dog (Phobe) to open the toy box when she gets her toys out
Jane- is my secret begger, she hides her whole body behind the recliner and all you can see is her nose poking around on the the arm of the chair
Ace- ie how he got his name. he sleeps in the summer on the AC vent and hogs all the cold air making the room hot
Daisy- hates the rain...i am not talking about hiding from going out...more like a 2 yr old having a tantrum..she rolls over with feet up in the air and you have to drag her out dead weight and all...or she will growl and grumble at you as you take her out.
Zander- growls at you while your eating..his way of threating you to give him food
Rosie will ease her way into your lap and then around your neck like a scarf...the sad part she's a boxer
Phobe- when my hubby calls for her to jump in his lap she jumps in mine...and one day he said Phobe go away and she jump into his lap
Maggie- is my yappy dog that barks at the wind...to the point that even when she is eatting she will bark...causing her to try to aspirate her food...hemlich or CPR tonite?
