Yappy Hour

I had such a full day that I'm posting twice!

This afternoon I helped Mike as he cut some branches in the yard. I helped him drag branches to the fence and he threw them over the fence for brush pickup. I didn't want to let go of the branches; once I have something in my mouth, I don't like to let go until I decide.

Tonight Mike and Diane took me to Yappy Hour at WineStyles at Inwood (located at Wurzbach & Bitters Roads). Yappy Hour was a fundraiser for Pet Pals of Texas, a nonprofit volunteer-organization that helps improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, the elderly, and terminally ill, by providing the pets they love with support services that allows them to stay together in a loving, healthy home.

Many dogs attended Yappy Hour with their humans. Mike figured there were about 30 dogs in attendance during the time we were there. There were dogs of all sizes--some were so small they could be held in a harness on their human's chest, and others were medium size like me, while others were large like Bruno the St. Bernard. Some dogs were festively dressed, while many of us received a bandana when we entered the store.

There were homemade treats for me and lots of treats and wine for humans. A singer named Brenna was singing. Mike said she was so professional that many of the humans thought that the vocals were recorded, rather than live, until they saw a live person singing.

I like family outings!
