    *Utah County Pet Fair* <pics>

    Lady and Nebo went to the Utah County Pet Fair on Saturday! They had quite a nice time!

    I'm not sure if I've ever had so many people take one look at Nebo and say "OMG does that dog bite??" in my life though. We had the halti's on both of them for most of the day...nobody said anything about Lady. Guess Nebo just naturally looks vicious.

    He also naturally looks feminine too, as everyone assumed he was a girl, as usual. Well, except for the lady that wouldn't SHUT UP trying to convince me that I shouldn't have neutered him because she had a husky she wanted to breed and blah blah blah. Sorry lady, little late for that--wouldn't have happened anyway!

    Ahh yes...and then there was the lady I met at Strut Your Mutt earlier this year. She had a Nebo look-a-like husky, red and white, blue eyes (I believe I posted a pic). Well, according to her it was an alaskan malamute, but it wasn't. She recognized Nebo and came over to talk to me. She informed me that she had to get rid of her dog a few weeks ago because she was getting out and digging up the yard. If she would have read just one article about huskies before getting the dog she would have known that huskies are known to do that! HELLO! And she had some little dog now...ugh...

    Done ranting about the ignorant people now, almost to the pics. I also happened to run into the other dog that is in Nebo's class, Mickey the irish setter. Then later my trainer showed up.

    Anyway..pics....please check out the

    What can be better then dogs and cones...just beautiful!

    The CUTEST clown!

    And here's a stunning Dobie girl!

    Nebo liked the pond...well, actually he wanted to eat the ducks. It was quite funny actually. He was running around on the shore like in the pic below. I decided to walk out onto the dock. To my (and his also!!) complete shock he jumped right off the end! Boy was he suprised when he didn't have ground beneath his feet! He freaked out so I had to drag my wussy wet husky, soaking myself in the process, out of the pond. He didn't go off the dock again, but he did continue to splash at the shoreline.

    Nebo ended up winning "Most Photogenic" in the Photo Contest...
    Here he is posing smugly with his prize.

    And here's the photo I entered:

    What's really funny is, the people didn't think it was of a real dog!

    Gosh Amy your pictures are always so good. The first one of just the scenery is enough to make me want to live in Utah! I can't imagine having all of that awesomeness (is that a word?) so close by. Maybe when you live there you get used to it but I think it would take me a while! The pupster pictures and comments were soooo cute and the dogs and cones picture made me laugh out loud. Thanks for such a fun post this morning.

    Awesome pics, Amy! I just love the pic that you entered for the contest, it's always been a favorite of mine.

    That's horrifying about the other husky that the lady got rid of. I can't believe some people!!!

    Wonderful Photos Amy!

    Looks like some fun, for doggies & people alike.......kinda like where we went yesterday
    Don't you just love seeing all the different dogs!
    I'm not surprised that Nebo won the picture contest...who could resist a face like that!
    And Roxey can understand the no ground underfoot. Tried to get her to swim with Smoke & Cinder yesterday, but it was a no go

    Well I'm glad you had a good time despite the ignorant people. Ugh.

    The weather was gorgeous and the pictures are great! Love the Zam look-a-like! It's the black nose.

    And goodness... did Nebo ever pull a 'Kia'. lol!! Jumping off the dock like that. I sympathize with the freaking out thing.... Kia sounded and acted like she was going to die.

    And I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't think that's a real dog in his puppy pic. Silly humans.
