Busy day ahead. Where to start?

Do you ever have that feeling of having such a huge TO DO list that all you want to do is crawl under the covers and read a good book all day?

Pets feel the same way too, sometimes.

I had an amazing day yesterday – working with 23 Greyhounds just off the track. I will be posting photos and the “rest of the story” this weekend…

Westminster – the week after

The NYC trip was busy as usual. And somehow, busier. It was a long day traveling back home and, despite my best efforts, I came down with a whopper cold upon arrival. I spent 2 days drinking lots of tea, sleeping and reading. Yay – feeling much better today, although also feeling way behind.

I will be adding the photos, stories and interviews to my About.com Veterinary Medicine site over the course of the coming week. I was happy/amused to catch several dogs yawning this year. Just a little pet photography quirk I have. lol Sophie does this all of the time. I am convinced she thinks it is extra cute (which I probably encourage). Here are two beautiful Salukis before going into the ring.

Smile!

Creature Comforts

I had a great time in NYC. I foolishly assumed that I would have more time to blog/Facebook/Twitter, but alas… there were many dogs, people and sights to see. Next week! Lots of stories to write about.

It was a long day of travel yesterday. We sat on the tarmac for a total of about 2 hours in 2 airports, in addition to the many hours in the air. A late plane and a  snowstorm in Denver meant that I finally got to get some ZZZs at about 4am EST. I was tired, but seeing the pets – especially Argos – being so excited upon my return perked me up. Sophie, Barnie and Greta are sort of familiar with the routine of someone leaving then coming back after a while. (Greta is totally attached to my son, my comings and goings are not as big of a deal to her.) I’ve never been “away” from Argos overnight since adopting him in December. He was so cute, bewildered, and thrilled at my return that I just had to laugh.

Today the trio of buddies – Barnie, Sophie and Argos – all happily settled back into the routine as I had my morning tea.

Early morning chill out.

NYC for Westminster and… a little sightseeing

The dogs always “know” the minute they see the suitcases. Cats… they are harder to read, but this was the face of  Barnie the night before I left for New York City.  awww. I hate to leave the pets! But they are in good hands with hubby and son. I hope.

Take me along

Today it was the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. I did an inside tour of the statue and posted the photos on the AboutVetMed Facebook page.
