City of Wanneroo - Dog's Breakfast

In my last entry I mentioned that we took Mouse to the TEDx talk simulcast at the Northbridge Piazza to prepare her for this Dog's Breakfast event up in Wanneroo. 


There were so many dogs there, big and small. This Great Dane was one of the biggest of course. Mouse did great. We were next to the Husky tent - they were trying to get people into dryland dogsledding and the dogs were very excited to be out and about so they howled and yipped and barked, as Huskies tend to do. Mouse was calm throughout it all.


Mouse even went through the indignity of a hydrobath before she got to greet her adoring public. She was so sparkling and white after her wash I had to wear my sunglasses the whole time because of the glare.


Barbie spent a lot of time chilling out, though she did do some meeting and greeting. She seemed to really enjoy the company of the dogs she has seen at the last couple of events, like Sabre and Annie. She also really liked Rudge, who she met for the first time today. 


We had a lot of doggie visitors, like this adorable little Husky pup. Annie made friends with some whippets - as she is in foster care with a couple I think she seeks them out now. 


Mouse had a lot of people pointing her out but after a while it was all too much. She tucked herself under N's legs and made herself small. I think she had enough attention for the day. 


I couldn't have been more impressed with her. She wasn't completely calm and didn't eat the yummy biscuit that she was given, but she didn't react to any dogs and was very friendly with all the greyhounds.

Sounds like a great day. I hope she caught the eye of her future family. I love events like this. It's so fun seeing all the different pups and those who love them.
She is being such a good girl. People seem to be drawn to her don't they.

Well, of course Mouse did well! She's a gem! The stipulation about her having her own blog when she gets adopted still stands, right?

For sure I will be writing it on the adoption contract!
What is the deal about the hydrobath? Was that a requirement?

The black hound looks like Power, and I want to know how you got him there for the day?!

Nah not a requirement but Mouse needed a bath and we didn't have time to do it at home. Our rescue has a few big black handsome Greys at the moment. It used to be the predominate colour but I think there is more variety now :)
A hydrobath would be handy wouldn't it :) Mouse is a star. I'm sure her forever home isn't far away.

Mouse has some *ahem* issues so her new family will need to be able to cope with them. She is also a border collie masquerading as a greyhound. If she doesn't get two walks a day she makes her own fun :/ We are going to be very picky about who gets her.
Pets dogs are really nice and great thing for all the dog lovers and animal lovers. The people always want to love their pet dogs and care them in their bad days. These great ninjaessays.org for the animal lovers.
Dogs breakfast info article is good because many people have pets but don't know what is the proper food for dogs. Nice admission essay writing collection and i like the black dog a lot due to big size.
