Saturday, March 2nd, was the Third Annual Celebration of Pets event out at the Sarasota Fair Grounds here in Florida. Although it was a bit chilly, rainy, and windy for us, it was perfect dog weather!  

There were so many fun things to do including Dock Diving, Agility, a Weave Pole Challenge, Lure Coursing, and the beloved "Wiener Dog Derby".  I missed the Derby the passed couple years and had heard it was a must see event. I got there early this time and it certainly did not disappoint!  It was hard to keep my camera focused because I was laughing so hard.

Aside from the activities, there were all sorts of vendors as well. I participated as a vendor last year, and unfortunately, didn't get to see much of the event itself. It was great to bop around this year and talk with fellow business owners and visit their booths. 

I had such a blast running into old friends and meeting new ones too. Here are just a few highlights of the day's festivities. If you don't see your pooches pic below, I have a complete gallery posted HERE. [http://www.dogstreetphoto.com/gallery/event-galleries/celebration-of-pets-2013]

Thanks to Pet Pages for hosting yet another fun and successful Celebration of Pets!  I am already looking forward to next year!

The Celebration of Pets was last Saturday, February 25, 2012.  It was the second year in a row for the annual Pet Pages event. There was plenty to do and much fun had by all.  Among the many activities where Dock Diving and Agility demonstrations, Lure Coursing, Dachshund Racing, and a 24 Weave Pole Challange.

I didn't have to venture far from my booth to check out all the fun and shenanigans. These pups came ready to party!

This little one was getting plenty of attention showing his support for the Sarasota Veterinary Emergency Hospital.

Cesar Millan would be proud of this little peanut and her tiny backpack. Her owner said she always carries her own treats and poop bags.

What a spectacular day. I met so many new friends as well as some old friends that stopped by to say hello.
