5-19-08 - "When the hog was trying to eat my shirt!"

Moo and I visited the new pet store in town today, Kara's Kritters. It was the grand opening. We wandered around and looked at all the animals: guinea pigs, hedgehogs, timber wolf hybrid, parrots, goats, and more. In one pen was a cute little pot-bellied pig named Babe. Babe was not for sale, but at one point convinced her owner to let her run around the store on her own. She was so cute! Moo went over to visit with Babe a little more after Babe was back in the pen. Moo put her hand down for the pig to sniff. It was at that point that Babe gave Moo's shirt a little nibble and Moo pulled her hand away. She giggled and thought that was the coolest thing - her favorite part of the day!

1-21-08 - Visit to a pet store

Moo's favorite part of Monday, January 21st was going to a pet store and holding an Italian greyhound and a pug. Whenever I can, I take Moo into pet stores. I love them and so does she! Even though we are not in the market for a new dog, the employees told us that we could hold a couple dogs. They said that they like to have them well socialized. Both dogs were mega small and very active. The pug nibbled on Moo's chin! I love hearing her laugh the way she did with those little puppies bouncing all over her. She thought that it was absolutely hilarious when the one peed on the floor. I was absolutely relieved that it didn't pee on me!
