Boy I was going to go to that too. But...... Its the OSU vs UM game weekend and I dont think I will make it to Michigan. I would have to wear my scarlet and gray proudly when we whip the pants off the wolverines Saturday and dont want to hurt anyones feelings lol
GO BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! That's so weird that this was bumped today. (Then that i remembered to come browse around the Pet Talk Forums tonight. )
I was doing research for a small business and accidently ran across the main expo site and while browsing around found the pet expo listing.
LOL!!Quote:

I will probably go. I am hoping that the Australian Shepherd "booth" is manned by the woman who owns a kennel near me.
Is the game on Saturday Tim? Andy and I are going to the expo Sunday only. Would love to meet you! :D
crow_noir, does that mean you're going? :)
Sadly we don't have the money. Besides, i think i'd go insane around that many people. I can handle the small shows at the Birch Run Expo Center for a few hours and i can handle going to the adopt-a-thons at PetsMart, but crowds of that size give me panic attacks. (I hope to God that i never have to be a refugee from a natural disaster or War!)Quote:

I've gone to a few gatherings of an online hobby site i go to, but it's not one i can talk about for even an hour. Luckily not everyone is as obsessed about it as others and we can talk about other things. A few of them have their own pets, but not all. At least S.O. now knows that online people are not all insane and that i'm not crazy for wanting to go to gatherings. The last one he had fun at; I think he'd be more open to going to a Pet Talk gathering anyhow. He at least likes animals, where as he could care less about my other hobby.
So no on the expo, but it's a possibility i'll go to a future one if it's in MI. Further in the future i may even go out of state.
I believe this is an annual event. Well, I know that Mom and I went last year, anyway.Quote:

I understand crow_noir. Like LilacDragon said, the Pet Expo is an annual thing so I expect it to be in Novi again next year. :)
If anyone wants to get in contact with me the day of the Expo, you can PM me for my cell #. :)
Andy and I had a great time at the expo! Took a lot of photos and came home with lots of goodies. :D
That's awesome!!!Quote:

HELP! – STOLEN DOG FROM PET EXPO NOVI
On November 18, 2006, our dog was stolen from her pen at the Pet Expo Novi at the Rock Financial Showplace in Novi, Michigan. Please help us get her back!
The dog is a female Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Saffie. She is 5 years old, red , and has been micro-chipped and spayed. She weighs approximately 26 pounds and stands 12 inches at the shoulder. She has a black mask and has natural ears and tail.
She was inside her pen and was taken approximately 2:30 p.m. She was left unattended for approximately 5 minutes when someone stole her along with her collar and leash. If you have any information regarding the theft of our dog, please contact the Novi, Michigan Police Department at (248) 348-7100. A reward is offered for her safe return and/or the prosecution and conviction of those responsible for the theft. She is very much loved by her family, and our little girls are devastated by this heartless act.
PLEASE CONTACT
PAUL OR TAMI GREEN
517 851 4044
OR CELL 313 802 4505
REWARD IS OFFERED
Wow, that is aweful!
I posted this to a Michigan Rescue board i am a part of. There are several MI rescues that are members on there and have a network for things like this. I hope they can help work their magic.
*laughs* :D I felt if I typed, "we came home with a little surprise for Kia", that might give it away. ;)Quote:
