    A Trip to the Renn Fest

    Since the weather stayed nice for Sunday as well, Andy and I decided to go to the Renn Fest. Sorta a spur of the moment thing... so being it was just the two of us, we called it a date.

    It was more crowded this time but we still had a lot of fun. Didn't see many shows, but enjoyed window shopping. I bought a hair accessory, a shawl, a wooden dragon figure with my name on it, and boots.

    There are little drinking holes scattered about for pups and I was passing one where a woman, little girl, and their cairn terrier was getting a drink.

    I started to call for Andy to stop saying I wanted to let Kia get a drink when the woman starts screaming, "You just wait and keep your dog away." I was stunned at first and I said, "I know, I was going to wait, I was just letting my boyfriend know I was stopping."

    She glowers and says, "You don't know much about terriers do you."

    I just smile and say, "Well my dog has shared many water bowls with them and there have been no problems if that's what you mean."

    The little girl says, "He's done." and the woman whisks them away, muttering "She doesn't know what she's talking about..."

    Andy looks at me incredulously and rolls his eyes. "She must not take her dog to very many dog parks."

    I just smile and said, "She's probably one of those types with an unsocialized dog that doesn't like other dogs and it's the other owners fault."

    Kia just happily drank. Ah well...

    PICS!

    Yay! I have been patiently waiting for a year to see pictures of Kia at the Renn Fest again! I love seeing Kia in her costume.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    Very good pics! I can't believe that dog was carried like that and didn't object He looked so awkward all sprawled out. Every year, my brother and sister-in-law go to the wine festival in Maryland. I've only gotten to go to one but it was fun, too.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Looks like you had a great time, Kim, Kia and Andy!! Thanks for sharing the pics. I didn't get to go to the Renn Fair in WI this year! They don't allow dogs there, though. Good thing. I think if the Ent showed up there and Killi and Shi were there...Killi would probably lift his leg on him and Shiloh would bite him, if he moved! LOL I love Renn Fairs!

    Those are really good pics!!
    Looks like everyone had a great time.
    My boss has a Cairn and he just gets really hyper around other dogs, annoying like. But I don't think she would get freaky like that.

    Thanks for the compliments everyone.


    Anna: Thank you.

    Lovemyshiba: It's what's left of a Turkey leg. I had the soup in a breadbowl, but Andy got full so fast, that he let me have the rest of the Turkey and I shared the left overs with Kia.

    Sue: Kia was fine around the Ent, until it moved!! She bolted so fast and wanted nothing to do with the walking tree after that.

    Staci: The funny thing is, the little terrier ignored Kia the whole time. Didn't act vicious at all. But who knows....

    Great pics!! Kia and Nebo share the same "look" in their eyes with presented with an especially tasty treat. Does the min pin have painted nails too?
