Dogtober Fest, Pet Expo and Howl-o-ween Fun! 

Priscilla went to Valley Junction to participate in their Dogtoberfest Festival. She bobbed for hot dogs, tried the cake walk for fabulous prizes; and of sniffed lots of dogs and flirted with lots of people! It was rainy, icky weather, so Prissy wore her rain jacket, and just watched the costume contest.
Dogs of all sizes were there!	The Oreo Cookie dog was clever!	I liked the Whiplash/Border Collie costume	The finalists wait for the results!
Pet Expo was in the 4-H building on the State Fairgrounds. There were a huge number of vendors there, and crowds of people and pets!  This was an opportunity for Gracie to work on her socialization skills, and she did pretty well, but Gary had to remind her to mind her manners!

Pricilla and I went to both PetSmart and Petco's Halloween parties. She's such a party animal! She wore the "hot dog" costume to both parties - a real hit with the kiddos PetSmart had treats for both the pets and their owners, and then took photos of dogs in costume - with a cute frame! The crowd was smaller on a weeknight, so Prissy had lots of opportunity to cruise the aisles and flirt with the staff. Petco had a crowd of people - kids and grownups - and dogs, cats, ferrets, and a miniature horse in costume! We all got a goodie bag (Priscilla shares willingly with her siblings). There were so many entries, that they told us they were going to contact the winners later by phone!
