Wagfest

So last weekend we went to Wagfest. It was so much fun. We found out that 12,004 people attended this year with over 6,000 dogs. Mom had a booth set up for her rescue so that was all she got to do all day. Dad was busy running Bokeh and I around. Bokeh has disc dog demos at 12:30 and 2:30. Then I had agility demos at 1:30 and 3:30 and no they were not in the same spot. Mom only caught one of Bokeh's demos. She was sad she missed me doing my agility thing.

Most of the photos we took were before the crowd arrived because after that point mom was busy trying to get some Weimaraners adopted and dad was busy with us.

Mom was excited. She found a booth giving our big sample bags of Orijen. Considering my food is so expensive mom was happy to get a sample bag for when we go out of town and stuff they are easy to pack and take with us.

Our pals, Bling, Bazooka and Bella were they. They had to enter the Fashion Show and scored third place. Way to go!

There was so much to do, they had agility, disc dog, dock diving, therapy dogs, fashion shows, TONS of free samples, cool things the rescue groups were selling. We can't wait for Wagfest again next year.

Here are some videos for those who have time to watch them. Here is Bokeh doing part of the disc dog demo.

Here is a video of my dad getting "jumped" by Rizzo

This is Bella with her dad Matt doing a demo at Wagfest as well

Last but not least here are some photos that our friend Lynn Fausnaugh took at the agility demo.

  5. Wagfest sounds like a great time! We enjoyed seeing Bokeh doing disc dog, and you doing your agility. (Psst - we don't like weaves either!)

  6. I wish you could have come to the pawm, I would have loved the chance to dance with you. Arty said that maybe next time you could go shopping with her and Scylla. Now that she has me dressed she won't be so exhausted. She acts like dressing me was a bunch of trouble, don't know why as I put on everything she told me, took off everything she told me and stood still for ages while she debated if I looked OK. Sisters can be a pain. Glad she let me and Casper go eat while she found herself something to wear, that took forever. We actually thought she had got lost. Scylla didn't come along as she already had something in her closet, and unlike Arty doesn't like to shop. And lucky Socks already had a tux, he confided in me that once a guy gets a tux that fits good he can wear it forever and not have to go through the shopping experience again. At least not for awhile. ~Fenris

  10. The dog walk fundraiser I went to last week had some agility competitions but not very many dogs participated. The ones that did looked like they were really enjoying themselves.
