Walktober Fest!

Hello! :) Today was a rainy day, so we waited and waited for the rain to let up a tad to head over to the Humane Society for Greater Nashua Walktober Fest that was being held at the Anheuser-Busch (Budweiser) plant in Merrimack, New Hampshire! I had to carry Jake the whole time we were there because it was very muddy since most of the vendors were set up in the field off the walkway. That was okay with me as long as Jake's paws didn't get dirty and at 8 pounds he was easy to tote around in my arm. I'm thinking of getting one of those pet tote bags to carry him in, but I'm thinking the training for him to stay in that thing would cost me about a bottle and a half worth of aspirins. Anyways, we seemed to of missed some of the events today including the benefit walk and some of the competitive shows such as the Disc Dogs (no, not a musical group, lol, dogs chasing a flying disc and jumping up and catching it in the air). There were alot of vendors there and we picked up a couple of freebies alot of way, like a chip bag clip, canned food covers, and some insurance company was passing out pedometers (I can use that when I go walking with my walking group). Zoey's Mom and Dad went earlier in the day and texted me to say they were leaving since they all were soak and wet from the rain. We will have to catch up with them again soon :) I got pictures today......yeah, of course I did.....

We are here.....let's look around....

Thankfully I had an umbrella stashed in the car, alot to see here....

Hmmmm, Jake's been to a pet psychic before, was told he
was afraid of rocks and stairs (funny how he loves the
beach and we live on the 3rd floor with no elevator), we
passed on getting a second opinion....


Lots of dog playing....

Ohhhhh, raffles, this table is for meeeee :)

A pet bed, p'jammies, and canine herbal remedies...interesting

Hello little one, let's get a closer look at ya....

Hello :)

This little one in the rain jacket is cute,
I'll get a better shot....

Hello....hmmmm, might get Jake a rain coat like that....

I don't really like how these two were looking at Jake,
I'm wondering if they had lunch today....

So as you can see it was a nice turn out.....
 That's my exciting day today. Not sure what we are doing tomorrow, check on me :) Have a good night.....

It's good you only weigh 8 pounds. Our Mom could not carry us Berner girls around. A pet psychic? Never seen or been to one. Very sad it rained, but it looked like a nice turn out despite the weather! Woof! x
