Hi all!

I took Hefner to the Wags for Wishes Dog Show in Del Mar today!! We are defintiely going back tomorrow! It was the best. I let Hefner do the Bark Park Agility courses twice each and he got lot and lots of applause from the crowd and loved it!! He is such a ham! I think he might really like agility and the trainer was so amazed that he wasn't afraid of anything! He did it all without hesitation. I watched the agility competition and met several local trainers. Those dogs are amazing and some train right close to my house. This show was right down the street from me.

I am going to let my westie do the "Lure course" tomorrow. It's where thay chase a fake rabbit on a wire through an obstacle for a time. She goes nuts whenever she sees a rabbit so I can't wait to see what time she gets!

I also scheduled a photo shoot with the professional photogorapher who is there all weekend! I am so excited to get some nice photos. I am also going to meet the Dog Whisperer and get a signed copy of his DVD! He is there from 11 to 2.

I bought some really cool stuff too...the leash that allows you to walk two dogs at once, the leash with push button open and close (so cool) and some cool coats which the sales lady called "cabana wear". They are coats made out of terry cloth and I already used them on Chai and Hefner after their swims today. They were great. I go lots and lots of free treat and food samples too. They were just passing bags of stuff out.

Anyway, I will try to remember my camera tomorrow and I will have my daughter nad the dog stroller with me so I can get some pictures to share.

Awww...wish I lived near you! I'd want to come! Sounds like a wonderful place...gosh~

I've never been to a dog show..and also didn't know they had all the extra stuff there like that! You will have to let us know how that DVD is...

Also how your Westie does with the lure course....how neat is that????
Thanks for sharing and we look forward to pics!

Sounds like a blast!

How did you hear about it?

I find that there are so many things that go on around here that I never hear about.

You have such great events in your area. How come there's nothing like that up here?? Is it that I just don't hear about them ??

I'm so jealous
