You're going WHERE?!


Well, well, well.  We FIGURED something was up with all the house cleaning and organizing going on.  But the REAL clue was when we saw the SUITCASE come out.  My human is leaving us – and the dog sitter is coming.  And WHERE do you think my human is going?!  To THE biggest DOG show in the world.  She is going to Crufts!!!  For those who have never heard of Crufts – it is in Birmingham, England and this year marks the 125th anniversary.  There are 21,929 dogs competing for the Best in Show title, with dogs from 47 countries – not including the UK!  The show takes place over 4 days and it includes not only the beauty pageant, but obedience, agility, dancing…you name it.  ANYTHING to do with dogs.  It’s Doggie Disney World.  And get this – there is a HUGE room with dozens and dozens and dozens of vendors selling dog stuff.  Guilt gift glory!!!!!!  Honestly, that is the only reason we are allowing her to go.  We suggested she take one empty suitcase to fit all of our gifts. 

Since it is a big anniversary for Crufts, I wonder if the Queen will go.  Or maybe Charles.  Or Harry.  Or one of the butlers.  I’m SURE some royal connection should be there.

My human is traveling with a friend from our local Kennel Club.  I feel sorry for that woman – she doesn’t know what she has signed up for.  My human likes to pack in every moment with something – rest is not on her agenda.  And get THIS – she was invited to join a group of PON owners from the UK for a special dinner!  L-U-C-K-Y or what?!

Yesterday I think she was feeling a tad guilty – so all of us went for a car ride to the grocery store.  The windows of Harry are completely COVERED in olfactory art – it is like the car has frosted glass windows.  A nice touch.  My favorite part of the ride is when Paxton sits directly behind my human – and breathes on her.  She has to drive with the window open – and it was pretty chilly yesterday.  Score Pax.

She doesn’t leave until this evening – so we will be SURE to keep her busy until then. Now to start planning some tricks for the sitter….
