Mutt Strut

Today we went to the Mutt Strut and it was FUN!  There were dogs everywhere and lots of activities going on.  We headed straight for the area where Greyhounds Only had their tent.  Miss Donna from the group has been emailing Mama and we finally were able to meet her in person. 

A flyer announced that we were there!  We were celebrities for the day. 

Me. Scout, Bryn and Scout.  Yep, another Scout and she is a girl, too! Bryn and Scout live with Miss Donna.

This is King Kong.  He weighs 96 pounds, but his racing weight was 106.  He looked taller in person than this picture shows.  He is a nice guy and loves to lean.

Mama said I was a really good boy.  I tried to get all the other dogs to play with me even little dogs.  I made people laugh.  I had fun!  Did I say that already?  BOL!

We got tired, of course.

Scout spun the wheel at the Petco table.  She won a tennis ball.  I know a certain greyhound, Flattery, that would have been very excited to win that. 

There were pools for us to drink from, but we preferred standing in and them and then we got drinks.

Scout had to step in everyone of them.

Scout watched some dog shaped balloon fly away.

The Greyhounds Only group made us feel very welcomed.  We talked about our travels and living in a motor home as well as greyhounds, of course. They invited us to more events and we will probably attend some.  I think Mama and Dad had as much fun as we did.

I Broke My Own Record

Thank you to everyone who has been ordering from our Amazon link.  We just received a payment!  We were really surprised because we only knew of our first order, but there have been many. Mama needs to pay closer attention to these things.  BOL!   Thank you again!!!!

The campground is starting to fill up with the holiday weekend campers.  We expect the place to be full tonight, but it has a long way to go for that to happen.

Mama isn't feeling well.  She thinks it is just allergies and not a cold.  She has been feeling bad since Wednesday night. She is really hoping it rains today and washes the stuff out of the air.  Scout and I have been good and even let her sleep all night last night.  We have been pretty bad lately about waking her up, but we think we figured out why.  Those yummy bladder sticks make us thirsty.  We eat them around 7 p.m. and then drink and drink.  Well, at 2 a.m. our bladders need to be emptied.  I set a new record on how long it takes to empty my bladder....1 minute and 20 seconds.  Yep, my previous record was 50 seconds. Scout sometimes lays down when I emptying my badder because it takes so long.  BOL!  I have always had this talent.  One of  the ladies who helped bring me to St. Louis told Mama that she couldn't believe how long I took. What can I say?  It's a gift.  BOL!

Mama has been chatting with a nice lady who reads our blog and actually lives in the area.  Miss Donna has invited us to some events that are coming up where her greyhound group, Greyhounds Only, will be attending. She has a greyhound named Scout, too!  Anyway, Miss Donna has been giving us a lot of information on restaurants, vets and other tourist information.  I think we might be meeting her next weekend at an event.

We hope everyone has a safe holiday weekend!
