Windy City Pet Expo

On Saturday I went to the Windy City Pet Expo. There were a lot of booths there. You know what that means? Lots of treats! I tried to get treats at every booth. My human didn't let me. I got some, but not nearly enough! Here's a picture of me by the Doggy Doughnuts booth.

See how excited I look? Don't I deserve a doggy doughnut? I didn't get one. Huh??!! I think all the booths should give out samples. I did get some Pork Chomps. Mmmmmm! Pork! So good! More, please! I didn't get more. I'm pretty sure my human got samples for later. How much later? Later now? Now?

I stood in a long line to meet Shorty Rossi from the show "Pit Boss". I don't see why. He didn't have any treats. Here's a picture of me with Shorty.

I was more interested in the next booth. I think they have peanut butter! Mmmmmm! Peanut Butter! I definitely smell peanut butter!

There were lots of other dogs at the Expo. I only got annoyed by a few of them. There were some booths that we didn't go to. I'm pretty sure they had treats. And one of them had rabbits! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! RABBITS!! I smell rabbits! Oh please can I have a rabbit? Pleeeeeeeeaze!!! I didn't get a rabbit. Sigh.

I did get to try the Rally Obedience course. It was so easy - except my human couldn't follow the signs. I did fine though. Isn't there supposed to be a celebratory cake at the end of the course? I'm pretty sure there is. I was told I'd get cake.

I give Windy City Pet Expo 3 Paws! Next time I want cake - and a rabbit!

Another Photo Contest.

My human entered me in another photo contest. Sigh. It's for The Wildcat Sanctuary's No More Wild Pets Campaign. Here's my picture for the contest.

I'm wearing a bandana that says "I Am An Appropriate Pet." Um, I find wearing bandanas very inappropriate - they're too small to fit around my neck! I'm getting extra treats for this, right?

Keeping Cool!

I don't like all this hot weather, but I still want to be outside! I bet lots of other dogs agree. So here's a tip for keeping cool outside in the tropics (which is apparently where we live these days): lie under a bush.

Step 1 - Find a nice big bush.

Here's a picture of me checking out a bush in the backyard.
 
Yeah, I think this one will work.

Step 2 - Make a nest.

Here's a picture of me rearranging the branches for the floor of my nest.


Here's a picture of me turning around to make the nest wide enough.

It takes skill to make a perfect nest.

Step 3 - Lie down and enjoy!

Here's a picture of me in my new bush nest.

See how happy I look!

Lying in a bush is good camouflage too. Here's a picture of the bush from the other side.

If I wasn't looking at the camera, I would be completely hidden! Ahhhhhh! So comfy! Just call me when it's time for dinner, please! Um, no, seriously. I don't want to miss dinner!

Heat Wave. Ugh.

I think the world is melting. Here's a picture of me at the beach before it got too hot to go outside.


It was hot, but I could manage. Here's a video of me with my friend Roethke playing in the snow last year.




I want to go to there!! It was cooler today, but not cool enough! I want winter back! NOW!
