Pet Expo!

As I had free tickets (note: I don't think the event is worth a $15 ticket as well as $8 in parking and will likely only go again if I have a free ticket), Uncle Chris, Emma and I went to Pet Expo.  We arrived around 9:30 (doors opened at 9) and were glad to have done so, because by the time we left the place was packed.

For the most part I was happy with how all the dogs there behaved. There was only one dog I observed being too aggressive (and with the prong collar and a woman who could barely control him I wondered if he should have been there). I do wish they would ban retractable leashes at these things. I kept getting tangled.

I learned that one of my coworkers has bearded dragons and got to hold one named Steve (no picture was taken).

Emma had a good time and although she told a few dogs to back off (in an appropriate manner), was well behaved. Might be because she was carried a lot.

I picked up a reasonable amount of treats to try for the dogs. I was limited because Phod can't have anything too hard due to his teeth, he can't have anything with chicken because we think that is what makes him itchy and he hates fruits and veggies! Lee would eat everything and anything, so she isn't the problem.




The few things I purchased

I picked up a few cat samples for my sister

The first treat I let the dogs try was kangaroo! I think their faces show how they felt about it!



While I don't love the event, it was nice to spend time with Uncle Chris and Big E!

Thank You Uncle Chris

Beside the big bone Hailey was seen eating on Wednesday (and a whole heap of other treats he brought to make up for having Emma move in soon), Uncle Chris brought us some new toys.


"Emma took the green one before I had chance to pick, sigh, she is always take everything."  Phod

"I think I will pick this one."  Phod

"Hmmm, what is this?"  Lee

"Looks like I got the smallest one, I will have to go and steal one of the other ones."  Lee

Thanks to Uncle Chris for the toys that are slowly being dead-ed!
