Mutt Show Toledo 2/26/05

[Cincy'sMom]

I emailed the person in charge of it, and asked some questions, but got very little in response. I will see her a week from tomorrow, so I can find out more then, but I mentioned that I might be able to get people with an Airedale, a golden and a English Mastiff and husky insterested, if she needed those breeds. Hopefully I can find out more, when I talk to her face to face.

Thinking about entering Kia as a 'Mostly Snow Dog' contestant.

[Cincy'sMom]

The mostly snow dog category is new! Kia should be a great fit!!

One correction to Phred's post...doggy spectators are $1.

I admit...I cheated! I have the flyer hanging on my fridge at home!!

[Cincy'sMom]

A little more about the purebred "Mee the Breed" portion f the show...

Basically they will have a table, like a vendor booth, and are asking people to take 1/2-1 hour shifts. You sit there with your dog nad answer any questions people may have about your breed. I thought they were doing more of a showing of the breeds, but now it isn't sounds in like that. Anway, if anyone would like to do that, there are guest passes available for free admission.

[shais_mom]

That sounds interesting but that means I wouldn't be able to meander around with my friends!!! I think I will just pay our way in!

looking forward to it!!

That is sorta of what I thought. Unfortunately, I am sorta stuck helping at the MASh table, but I am trying to take as much of the early shift as I can, so I can be free by the time to competitions and stuff starts!

Kia is signed up for the competition and our hotel reservations have been made!

See you all there!

[Cincy'sMom]

Yeah!!! I have still not decided if we are entering anything, but we'll be there!!! Let me knowif you need anything while you are in town...if you want to come let Kia run a bit after the car ride down on in the morning before the show, and anything.

Since I signed Kia up for the competition, we have to be there by 9:30 a.m. Andy and I are not morning people.

It's over an hour and a half drive and that's if the weather and traffic behave.

So we just figured it'd be easier to stay the night. We only booked a room for Friday night. We'll be heading home after the Mutt Show.

We're staying at the Radisson which is connected to the convention center.
