Halloween was a success this year! There were so many local events to choose from, we decided to spotlight Halloween on the Mile in Coral Gables, Florida. The event was held at the Coral Gables Museum, and there was quite the turn out, over 40 dogs registered for the pet costume contest and they did not disappoint! There was everything from tiny clowns to superhero's, and they were all very well behaved pooches too :) All the pictures taken at the event is on FlickR page (CLICK HERE- to be redirected) We did our best to capture all the pups so if you see your fur-baby and would like a digital image, please contact us and we would be more than happy to email you a digital full size image.
Here is a sneak peak of the event...

And the best Dressed at the Golden Globes was...Uggie the Jack Russell Terrier! Like most of you we had our viewing party of the Golden Globes, we had so many of our faves win big Sunday night-including Uggie the dog from the movie the Artist. Not only did Uggie and his cast win for Best Picture- but he looked very dapper with his bow-tie when he walked the red carpet & showed off his star-quality! Uggie has a rags to riches story sadly he was rejected by his first two owners as being too wild, he was about to be sent to a dog pound, but was adopted by animal trainer Omar Von Muller after his friends told him about the dog. Initially Von Muller only intended to foster Uggie but later decided to keep him!
Next up for Uggie is the Oscars-Good Luck Uggie :)
Below is a clip of Uggie in the amazing movie "The Artist"

There are so many adoptable pets in need of a good home, we all know that, but what's worse is that there are pets that face dismal odds of being adopted due to age or certain physical conditions such as blindness. Luckily petfinder.com is running "adopt-A-Less-Adoptable-Pet-Week" September 17-25, that aims to take this unfortunate discrimination against less-adoptable pets with their theme, "Don't hate me because I'm less_______, adopt me because I need you." The goal of this is to help adoption organizations draw attention to this heartbreaking problem & highlight some of these wonderful but overlooked pets. Check out some of the pets in need here. There are so many pets that simply need to be given a chance,& unfortunately most people turn the other cheek & BUY a puppy from a pet store (probably bred at a puppy mill). So if you may know someone that has the heart & home for an adoptable animal, please share this with them & help us spread the word!
