| Super Pet Expo? Anyone been to one? What has been your experience? Is it worth it?

| I went to the one in Timonium this past January. I was highly disappointed. So much so that I emailed the organizers. Never got a response back. This year the number of rescues and non-dog related booths equalled (I truly believe) the number of vendors-and those totalled together was not a lot of booths anyway. We drove approximately 1 - 1 1/2 hours to get there and that is just about the amount of time it took for us to walk through. I told the organizers that I understand how important it is for the rescues to be there but that I was expecting a whole lot more of vendors. Don't get me wrong, it is very important to get the word out but not everyone attending is necessarily looking to adopt. We went last year and it was a little bit better, more variety of vendors.

| Which expo are you going to? I haven't been to one yet, but I'm going to go to the one in King of Prussia, PA this weekend to check it out. I've heard mixed reviews about them. I think you should just go and see for yourself, since everyone seems to have a different opinion about them. |

| There is a Super Pet Expo (I think there is several of them- all by the same people) in King of Prussia, PA every year and I've heard (from a few YTers and others) it's pretty bad. I was going to go last year but was glad I didn't. If I remember correctly, it's kind of expensive!

| And it's not just bad in PA. The one I went to in TX was really bad. My hubby and I were really dissappointed.
