Beautiful day in New Jersey. We set up booths at a NJSPCA Pet Expo.
Lynn and her husband Dave were there.
We decided not to bring the dogs, and that was good as it was just too hot.
I felt bad for all the dogs for adoption that were there at the event.
John brought Giupetto and Gianna with him at the end of the event to help me break down.
Here are some pics.

This French bulldog was showing their system you could rent to see what your dog sees.
Yes, lots of greyhounds for adoption.
There's my Afghan hound. Love this breed.
Corgi with large head, buys one of my top hats.
He went with this hat.
How cute the French beret looks on her.
This guy came back to thank me for how well this tandem leash extension works with his 2.
Giupetto, Gianna and I met Lynn and Dave and Baxter for a day out at an event featuring Latino American fashion and World Cup sports, sponsored by Ada Nieves.

There were also Latino dancers and a beauty pageant.
It was fun, it was the first really warm day this spring and it was sunny. A great day.
We just purchased our stroller and this was the first event we went to with the stroller and the dogs did good. You will notice many people use strollers at these events. They also supply a place to put some of your stuff.
The stroller also provided shade when we could not get out of the sun, by zipping them up.
The dogs were fine with it, and were pretty well behaved.
Giupetto and Baxter were chosen to model 2 of the Latino outfits.
Giupetto for Chile.
Baxter for Guatemala.
The Three Muskateers.
Here is a movie of a collection of the best of the pictures taken during the day:
I am so excited! I got a card from Athena and Sasha,and then I saw that it was much more than a card. It was an ACEO from Athena.
An ACEO stands for Art, Cards, Editions and Originals. They are 3 1/2" by 2 1/2" art in miniature.Athena has started making these recently and sells them in her shop - SassySashaDoxie.etsy.com.
But back to my prezzie - It is not just an ACEO made by her,but it is of my 2 precious doggies - Giupetto and Gianna.
They just look adorable. Look at the detail in the fur. Even my husband was very impressed, and he is very hard to impress,and I actually saw a smile - Hey Mikey, he likes it!
Then I had to laugh because not only do the dogs look great,
but Athena is known for her detail.
She has them sitting on my red couch (where I take so many of my pictures of them) and she even included the pillows that I have on my couch and the little designs in the pillows are there. I don't know how she knows this, but she even got the gold color in the back of the pillow.
I already started framing it, and stopped to take some pictures. I think the pink matt with the orange and white striped border looks great.
And here it is already on the wall in sewing room.
