Let me start by saying that last nights parade was AWESOME!!
Amaruq couldnt handle all of the excitement... so he ended up napping in the Bronco while Sakari (the pumpkin), Sprocket (the chicken), Snickers (the lil devil), Ellie (the spider), and HoneyBun (the ladybug) all walked the parade with us!!
I am sooooo very proud of my dogs... and well, myself! I have VERY well behaved dogs...and they got that way from proper training, being worked with and getting lots of personal attention!!
There were ppl in front of us... with a dalmatian (they had a wagon with the theme of 101 dalmatians)... that dog was sooo out of control!! It was lunging at a mini pony... and then it tried to go at Sakari (bad idea!)... but she only barked a few times and then showed all around us what a well behaved dog looks like!! I should have given the dalmatian owner my card... for training!! LOL!!
To top that off... as the parade started... her dog was lunging and barking at EVERYONE in the crowd!! That is one dog that should NOT have been in a parade!!!
Sprocket was sooo excited... he looked drunk weaving back and forth trying to say hello to EVERYONE!! Sooooo cute! Sakari did a great job carrying the spare candy! She even was extremely patient with the kids that were in line behind us... that just wanted to hang on her... because she is such a big dog!
We tossed a lot of candy with our stickers on it... and got MANY compliments on our dogs. We handed out some business cards to ppl with dogs too.
When we got home... we all crashed!! Poor pups were tuckered out!
Such an AWESOME night!!! Cant wait to do it again next week!!! :-) (and I can say this even tho I had such a horrible, blinding migraine!)
NEXT YEAR: We start planning WAY earlier... and we have a theme... and we kick butt in the judging!!! :-)
Let's see...
Today I need to clean up my shop! I spent a good part of yesterday grooming my dogs... and doing some deshedding. But because of my nasty headache... I didnt clean up very well.
I also need to prepare for tonights training session!! And maybe actually spend a little bit of quality time with my hubby... since he is home today!
Gunner has a vet appt this afternoon. Brittany's halloween dance is today... then she is going to spend the night at Zoey's. Nathan is going to go to his Aunt Debbie's for the weekend. So it will just be me, Stac and Courtney home this weekend.
Tomorrow there is a scavenger hunt at the gun club... I really want to do that. I also have a grooming appt in the afternoon.
Sunday is the halloween pet parade at TSC... Guess who will be there?? Yep... US!! And Britt has cheerleading.
Soo... busy weekend in store for us!!
I am still sticking to my diet! It was a hard beginning... but it is getting easier!
Well, I guess I better get my butt moving... lots to do... and I have to eat breakfast yet!
I hope the sun sticks around this weekend... so we all can have an awesome, enjoyable weekend!!
