BlogPaws 2013 - The Adventure Intensifies!

It's an invasion!  Flats, Plushies, & Furries!  Oh My!

On Thursday, I watched as the BlogPaws attendees poured in until the hotel was overflowing.   So many shoes and tushies to sniff!    I wasn't the only one who smuggled in a flat pal.
I think the flats & plushies outnumbered us furries.   I saw a lot of flat & plushy pawties! 
Thursday morning, Thursday evening, and Friday evening flat & plushy pawties.
 I wagged hello to pals I knew, and introduced myself to some new ones. 
Kona and I decided to join in the flat & plushy pawties too!
Flat Boris and Plush Scruffy arrived with a couple of extra plushy pals.    I took them up to my room for a little pawty before the sessions started.
Scruffy is wearing a vest from Spoiled Pup Boutique!  Do you see me on the flyer?
After the Thursday sessions ended, the exhibit area opened!   My wonderful pals at Spoiled Pup Boutique gave me a beautiful new dress!   (I'll show you a photo when I tell you about the Saturday evening pawty.  BOL!!)
Just4MyPet has a free ID tag offer, and a new customer discount code:  Welcome 10
The nice man at Just4MyPet gave me a set of personalized trading cards.   They have my picture on them!  They even make matching human and dog shirts.   Pawsome!!
PetMD University, Royal Canin, and Jones Natural Chews
Boris and I showed Pearl and Scruffy the booth for PetMD University, the place where we had been learning all about pet health.   Then Scruffy got hungry, and wanted to taste all the available samples.  He nibbled at Royal Canin, Jones Natural Chews, Hartz, PetSafe, and FreshPet.  (I had a little nibble or two myself, but I'm blaming Scruffy.  BOL!)
Hartz
Mom enjoyed a furrific lunch on Friday with our pals from Hartz.  Two of our Dogster/Catster pals where there too!  After the lunch was finished, Mom gave me a little bite of her burger.  Yummy!   During the Hartz presentation, we were a little surprised to learn that not every pet gets to see their vet at least once a year.  We thought everyone saw their vet at least once a year for vaccines.   Sadly that isn't true.  Some owners don't believe in vaccines.  I know vaccines work.  I was accidentally exposed to Kennel Cough this year, and I did NOT get it.  I get the vaccine nose drops every 6 months.  They worked for me!
PetSafe
We visited our pals at PetSafe and learned about a program called "Bark For Your Park".   You can vote for your town to win a dog park!  Voting ends June 7, 2013.  Hurry up and Bark! (vote)
My OraStrip results
I had my mouth tested at OraStrip.  I have pretty teeth, but I have begun to get some germs below the gumline.   I'll have to check with my vet about that. 
Disco NoFurNo of Curlz and Swirlz grew some hair for the pawty.
I saw the coolest looking cat.   Those kitties from Curlz and Swirlz have real style!
Tagg
I'm getting sleepy, but I want to visit my pals at Tagg.
@TinyPearlCat tours the Kitty Lounge.
Friday evening we had to show Pearl the Kitty Lounge before we went to sleep.
Pearl, Scruffy, and I are ready to go nite nite. 
Yes, I'll tell you the rest of my BlogPaws adventure in another post. 
I still have more photos to show you!  BOL!!
