First EVER Barktoberfest in Tupelo!!!

Oh My Dog! Not only do we have a new dog park.. they hosted the very first ever Barktoberfest! Right here in Tupelo! I was so excited to go!  So, Momma, My older human brother RW and I went out to the Bark Park and had a lot of fun. There were a lot of tents set up with all kinds of cool information and even some really yummy smelling things. And other dogs! There were a lot of really friendly pups there! 

Me checking out all the sights. 

My silly human brofur, RW holding our "door prizes"

Why am I still on this leash? Usually you let me run free here! 

You seriously want me to go through this thing? I don't think so.. 

Meeting a nice lady from the Tupelo animal hospital.

Me laying in a shady spot meeting another pup

This cutie was only a couple months old! 

Such a pretty girl!

This was my pal. We kept bumping into each other, and we both really wanted to play! 

This sweet girl is a husky mix.. and she looks a LOT like me!! 

A lot of pups wore costumes, he was one of them. 

checking out the microchiping tent. I already have one, but it was good to know they had it there

This girl had on such a cute lil dress!

Checking out the girl pup in the cute dress... not to worry.. I'm fixed! BOL! 

I had to laugh.. this pup had his owner all tied up! BOL! 

Momma and RW loved this pup..he came as the Chik-Fil-A Cow! 

I'm not sure why they were letting these mini horses in.. I thought it was a DOG park.. oh well, they were really friendly. :D 

I smell treats in these bags!! 

Checking out pups!

Another pretty GSD

This one had to have won best costume.. BOL! What a great sport that poodle was to be dyed like that! 

Hey Momma! They have drinks and food in here! 

Can't wait til Next Year!!

Some explaining to do...

First, you'll probably see a lot more of Magneto then of Colossus and I. It's not because he's more loved or anything.. it's because he actually does GREAT around other people and dogs.. and well, Colossus and I don't. 

The reason Colossus isn't getting along with others is because we've recently discovered he has what is called "Black Skin Disease." Sounds yucky.. and it is.. but thankfully it is not contagious. It is genetic. So, along with him having the funky fur, he is now loosing the fur and has rough dark skin around his tail. :(  He's on special meds and shampoo... and has to wear a cone of shame.. 

I make looking like a satellite dish look good right?? :-) 

Even though it isn't contagious.. it doesn't look all that great either. And we don't want people freaking out thinking that their dogs may get sick. :-( It was a hard decision to make, but until he starts to get some of his fur back, it was one that needed to be done. He IS getting a ton more loves on though.. too much if you ask me. Always cuddling (when he doesn't have the "Goop" on that is) and getting yummy treats. Momma says they have medicine in them, but they smell like liver to me! No fair I tell ya! 

As for myself.. well, I've just been grouchy. Not sure why. I do great at home. But sometimes I whine too much when there are other dogs at the dog park.. a really deep, loud whine. It scares people. Momma knows it isn't really scary.. but it SOUNDS scary. I just really want to play, but make weird loud noises. Momma is planning to work more with me.. in the near future. But until I can learn to behave (again) she says she just can't risk taking me to VERY public places. :( I know.. I'm sad too. 

So, with all the new Dog Events coming up, because of the brand new dog park, Magneto is the one who gets to go. Hopefully soon you'll see more "Public" posts that include myself AND Colossus. :)

Our Dog Sled Team!

So, this is what we wish we were doing right now. Hooked up to a sled, running running running! Going as fast as we can, over the white, cold snow. Those are are three human brothers on the sled. BOL!  They'd be laughing and we'd be panting with happiness.


Is this what we are doing?


Nope


It's 80* outside where we live. No snow at all, we didn't even have snow this winter! So, we are all huddled around the air conditioner vents, letting the fans blow on us as we sprawl out on the floor panting. Not from the excited run through the snow.. no.. panting from boredom and heat. 


Blah


We need to pack up the humans and move us all up to the north pole.
