Waking up around 7 this morning, after feeding & such we headed over to the fairgrounds for SEGDI's 24th annual WALK-A-THON!!
The weather caught up with us - and it was COLD and wet :(
That of course did not stop us from walking. We met up with our group and once the walk started we were off!
My Raiser got to work with me on pulling. Pulling & dog distraction are 2 problems she has had with me. But I've not had much problems with the doggy distraction, as my Raiser has been working with me on that. After the 2+ mile walk I was doing great with walking, and NOT pulling! My Raiser was happy, & I got treats :)
Each year down at WAT they have "Silent Auctions". They had 30+ gift baskets (all donated). You could walk around, and if you really liked one you signed your name/number & price. Some items went really high!
My Raiser "won" a spa basket for me, (she will post a picture of it later). And the basket she made sold for $50! (Picture of it below).
They were offering free massages, so my Raiser thought it would be a "great" idea for me to have one. I did end up liking it (and the people), after a while, they were soo kind!
My Raiser met new people, I made new friends, & most of all we had FUN!!
Please enjoy the pictures, don't forget my Raiser tags them for me:)
We sure had a Super "Soaked" Saturday, hope you did too! (without the soaked)
(Pictures taken later today will be posted by my Raiser if I don't get time tonight)

So many dogs! And I can't believe you're 11 months old! That means I'm 2 months older than you, but you're so big!
Like Khyra said, I bet you'll sleep well tonight!

Hello Toby,
Happy 11th Month Barkday! You are just a month older than us. Coolness! Congratulations on your walk-a-thon. That's a lot of pups there. Fun Fun Fun!
Your spa basket makes us look forward to lots of pawpering from mommy. Weeeee

We like silent auctions, especially when we WIN! I am sure you will figure out that whole pulling thing, just keep listening to your handler.

looks like lots of tiring fun even in the rain!
Thanks for posting all this fun photos of all the fun you had at the walk-a-thon! And let's not forget ourselves here: Happy birthday! We can celebrate the weeks too, if you like. The months are long.
Twink!
Hi Toby,
Love all those pictures of you! Looks like everyone had a fun time - even if you did all get a bit wet!! :-)
Slobbers,

ps. Happy 11th Month Birthday!
I love the basket and think the massage is a fantastic idea! I'm sure both my pups would love one!
