WOOF STOCK 2010

*Disclaimer: This is a long post please get a snack and drink and sit back for a groovy post*
Finally after much preperations and much anticipation we finally got to attend Woof Stock 2010 at the Carbondale, IL Petco!


On the road!

Now since momma "had to do the dishes" we were running late and had to rush there and grandma let me and momma out while she and the boys parked the car. As we walked up they were having the last call for the trick contest. Which was the main event we came to attend. Thankfully we got there in the nick of time.

This little cutie had her turn but was still doing tricks for the crowd and getting lots of attention.


Guess who won 2nd place for her perfect twirling? Me, Miss Mollie Jo, Can you believe it? We almost didn't make it and I end up winning 2nd place and got a big bag full of goodies! Grandma and the boys were walking up just in time to hear my name announced as the 2nd place winner!


After all the contest excitement we went to the water buckets to get a drink and met some cool dogs.


Uncle Puppy got a little too personal with one tiny pup.


Then I saw him....Mr. Red Ruff. I love the large full figured boys! He even shook my paw!


Bobo was a bit unsure of him holding his paw.


Uncle Puppy said no to paw holding and just sniffed his mouth.


We saw lots of other fun doggies pawticipating in the groovy pawty.


This little terrier was just giggling at all the fun going on around her! BOL


Then we found the wheel of fortune booth.


Grandma and Uncle Puppy went first. They landed on a level prize 1.


When momma, Bobo and I spun and won a level 3 prize.


Grandma picked a pink tennis ball for me and momma picked a GIANT Cesar Milan water bowl for all of us to share.


Whew big dogs!


With fancy footwork!


OOOH OOH OOH collars!

What pretty boston terriers and a labradude.


WHOA! They lunged and growled at Uncle Puppy. Not proper Woof Stock behavior.


After the GREAT BOSTON indecent we tried to have Uncle Puppy pose next to this stuffed poodle but he wasn't having it.


Everyone loved us and our groovy collars, bandannas, and leashes!


After we saw all the fun stuff outside we headed inside the store. Why does Bobo have to tangle me up?


After we got untnagled we made our way through the crowded store to find the tag machine to see if they had any new tags.


We saw a big Doberman...

...a tiny furry Dachshund...


...chocolate brown brothers...


...and Uncle Puppy spotted....


....A pretty pitty!


Then Uncle Puppy spotted the rawhide bar!


He also spotted some...

...adoptable doggies...The one in pink looked kinda like Candy from I need a Sugar Fix.


Once we were done inside we came back to the car to cool off. I got to finally play with my new ball!


On the way home we stopped a local scrapbooking store but it had gone out of business....Darn! But in the parking lot we found this little fella. We named him Tommy. We watched him as the ran through the parking lot and made sure he made it to the grassy area. For a turtle he was running pretty quick! BOL


Once Uncle Puppy got in the car he was out like a light and slept most of the way home.


When he did wake up we gave him a rawhide...it works just like a pacifier! BOL BOL


Then he jumped in the backseat with grandma and us and did this move...


Can you believe Petco has a line of charms that are $1? Well they do and they just released the new autumn charms with leaves on them. I also got a pretty collar with leaves on it to match! Again this collar was labeled as a cat collar but I think it was a mistake. I just want to be clear...I don't shop in the cat section. Petco has mislabeled this stuff. Ok?



Whew that was a super duper pawty and we had a blast!!!



GROOVY Wags and Licks,
Mollie Jo & Bobo
