Dawg Days

We headed to the Pet Expo today and hung out with all sorts of critters. Erin wasn't too sure what to make of this gentle giant. Geez she didn't even come up to his chin.

The biggest hit were the Acrocats. Cats doing tricks. As you might imagine it took a lot of coaxing to get the cats to do their routines. But it was fuuuunnnny. Riding skate boards, pushing little push cars, driving remote control cars. Right in the middle of the show though Erin announced that she had to go and to go right now. Since the bathrooms couldn't be further away and meant a long snaking route through wall to wall people we had to think fast. Poor Erin ended up squating by the back door where the dogs were supposed to pee. Just so ya know!

My beautiful girl.

Jackson got to talk to his animal agility teacher and some former classmates. He has such a gentle touch with animals- at many of the booths they would let him take out the kitty/cat/pup/dog and just play with it. And notice that I did not embarrass him to death by taking his picture.
