Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Yesterday was so pretty. It was snowing big fluffy soft flakes all day. Gorgeous! Of course, I wasn't thinking it was so gorgeous when I slipped off the step from my garage and twisted my foot! Time to get some de-icer, I guess.
I spent most of this weekend at the Pet Expo. I spent a lot of money there too but I got Neiko a new waterproof crate bed (which he LOVES), a bunch of gormet treats and a few other things. One of which I'm going to send to my secret santa! :)
My main purpose for going there was to try Neiko at dock jumping. I got him to jump during practice, so I figured, ok I'll sign him up for the competition. I paid my $15 and when it was our turn to go, Neiko refused. ha. Doesn't that figure? He just stood at the end and barked at me like a mad dog. Ann even tried to help by holding Neiko while I got him all riled up for his frisbee and he RAN ran ran to the edge and stopped. Doh. Oh well. I will have to try him outdoors when we can jump off a much lower to the water dock. This one had quite a drop off.
I had my niece with me and she got bored of watching us fail so we decided to walk around instead of trying Neiko again. She really enjoyed the show, she got her picture taken with about 5 exotic birds (bird rescue) on her, she got to pet all of the dogs, flying squirrels, reptiles, etc. Then she spent the night at my house and I took her home the next day. It was a blessing to have her because she really cheered me up (which I needed badly). I always have such a good time with my nieces. They are so very sweet and I love them to death.
I have to go pick up the clay paw the vet made of Dakota. I'm dreading that.
