Dogtober Fest!

It's almost that time of year again! The Dogtober Fest is coming! It's where all sorts of dogs from around the area come together in a big place outdoors. And there are all sorts of games for us doggies to play, like sack racing (your human is in the sack, and you are running beside them), and bobbing for biscuits (you try and get dog biscuits out of a water bowl!) there are also frisbee, agility, herding and swimming competitions. On top of the games, there are all kinds of animal shelters that bring dogs there to get adopted. Now, alot of dogs come to the Dogtober Fest, and some of them go all out with the Halloween spirit! Here is a picture from last year's Dogtober Fest, of a pair of festive poodles!:

  1. I wish we had something like that here! We did just have See Spot Walk the first Saturday in October. I didn't get to go though.

  2. Wow...those poodles sure look silly! But Dogtober Fest sounds like a heap of fun. What activities are you taking part in?

    Love, Oscar and the gang

  3. I do the bobbing for biscuits and the sack race, I'm not quite talented enough to do agility or frisbee yet, but Tonya would like to enter me in one of them some time.

  5. O Dogtober Fest sounds like a lot of fun! :)

    Hehe the poodles look very good in their halloween costumes! We had a poodle living with us for a while - we wouldn't have needed to dye her though, as her natural colour was orange (Apricot) hehe!

    Licks and lots of slobber,
