Just sharing a brag! On Sunday I took Tequila out to the Canine Classic dog fair fundraiser for a nearby county's shelter. Pretty big event for dog lovers around here; they had 50+ vendors plus various exhibits and demonstrations. They also have contests... one of which is an owner/dog Look-Alike contest... Tequila and I won first place!! Woo-hoo!!!
Aaaand, the very next day, we made it in the newspaper. =)
It was too bad that it was raining; the chi's all stayed home since they don't like being out much unless it's nice. Tequila on the other hand (when dressed appropriately of course!!) LOVES being outside. She had a blast, and was so friendly to everyone. I just love taking this girl out, because she's such a great ambassador for the breed... most people think 'worlds ugliest dog,' but she has changed so many people's minds about this dog because they don't know or havent even heard of the powderpuff variety (full coat of hair, we just keep her groomed in the pony cut.)
Here's us before we went; she had pink hair, and I had pink streaks in mine. We both dressed alike too. This puts her size into perspective too... you can see why she fits in with our chi's so well!
During the LookAlike contest..
The toy we got for First Prize...
Had to share this with ya'll... she met lots of doggies including this tiny little guy, who of course won the Smallest Dog contest!
And here's a print screen of us on the newspapers website the next day! Poor baby looks soaked but we left after it started raining hard.. why couldn't the photographer have taken it when we first got there?! Oh well lol.
Thanks for looking! =)
