Yesterday we decided to take Monty and Harlow to the
Holiday Pet Festival held at
WestWorld in Scottsdale. We loaded up the pups...
(I will apologize in advance for the poor picture quality. I used my cell phone since it is easier to carry when pups are on leash.)

Looking for sun beams... |
Note: Monty wears a
Halti due to his re-activeness to other dogs. We can control his head better. He only really acts up if a dog jumps in his face, but with so many dogs there we wanted to make sure he stayed a good boy. Our plan was to use use Harlow as a buffer in groups of dogs while still letting Monty visit with people. We didn't plan to stay long and we got there early to avoid the large crowd.
The best part of the whole day was seeing all the dogs and rescues. Every table was either selling or giving things away, but we were there to look at pups!

Pretty in Pink! |
There were two Weimaraner rescues there. I think the photo above is the
Tickled Pink Weimaraner Rescue. The other one was
Arizona Weimaranar Rescue. Click on their link for a very silly Weim photo! I thought of
Sagira's mom... :)
We thought these labs were mighty handsome.
We really liked this big guy and tried to get a size comparison with Harlow...
...and Aaron really liked this little girl. Her name was Foxy. She was born with part of her rear paw missing. Even though her leash says "Adopt Me", Aaron had the distinct impression that the guy holding her leash didn't want her to leave. Hehe... foster failure in full swing.

I has a home, thank you! |
While we were there we stopped by
AZGRC's booth.
Where Harlow got some kisses from Auntie April:
|
April is one of Harlow's favorite people! |
Monty was mesmerized by this jingly pup...
|
Note the jingles bracelets... |
I wonder what he was thinking?
|
Ruh-oh... dis gonna give Mom ideas... |
On our way out we saw the cutest Minnie Mouse in a Santa suit ever...
All in all it was a wonderful trip out with the pups. We left with happy pups:
|
Monty is still searching for sunbeams... |
Which leads to tired pups....
|
ZZZZZZZ.... |
Which leads to one happy Monty because he gets some peace and quiet.
|
Shhhh... don't wake Harlow up! |
That looks like a great event. We hope all those pups find amazing homes. Lee and Phod

Looks like a fantastic day! Monty, let's hope your sister grows out of her puppy crazies. Abby turns 4 next week, and I'm STILL waiting for her to grow out of her puppy crazies! Definitely encourage your parents to wear Harlow out whenever possible! ;-)

What fun!! The rescue I/we volunteer with (GRREAT) had their Howliday party today and it was cut short by the weather--But any event where dogs are really are great fun, and it doesn't matter if you have 2 or 4 legs, you do get worn out! Glad you had a good time and I hope those looking for forever homes find them soon!
ReplyDeleteI want a St Bernard so bad!
ReplyDeleteStop on by for a visit

Thanks for such lovely happy smiley photo's. I NOSE a dog who would do just that, nose to nose, she is the small dog and the one's she noses are always big one's. :-) So far she gets away with it :-) Luvs Frankie de tabby.. X
ReplyDeleteI smiled and smiled. What a wonderful series of photos of a fun day! I'm afraid my problem would be that I'd come home with extra dogs!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm whispering, Monty. Is Harlow still sleeping?
Sounds like fun! Beamer is the same as Monty. He's great with other dogs, but snaps when one jumps at his face repeatedly. He has great doggie etiquette in the sense that he's very slow to approach other dogs and expects the same in return.
ReplyDeleteWe have an event similar to that called Winter Woofstock, but they cancelled it this year :(
Pet fairs are the best. Looks like you saw some old friends and met some new friends too!
ReplyDeleteWyatt and Stanzie
That looked such a great event to go to, love seeing all the pampered doggies :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun for pooches and humans alike! I'm enjoying watching Monty and Harlow's relationship grow.
