Passion for Paws Picnic & Wine Tasting, Suffolk, Va

This afternoon we went to an outdoor picnic and wine tasting at River Stone Chophouse in Suffolk. It was a fundraiser for the Suffolk Humane Society.

It was very hot and humid but we made the best of it. Dogs laid on their pillows while we ate homemade hot dogs, potato chips and pasta salad. We also did a charming wine tasting--they had all wines named with animal themes--14 Hands Hot to Trot, 3 Blind Moose, Herding Cats, Goats du Roam, Rabid Red and Bitch! The organizers had asked us to do a freestyle demo but it was really too hot for that. The dogs would have been lethargic and not in the mood to perform. Wouldn't have been any fun to watch.

The statue cow was the only animal that didn't have its tongue hanging out from the heat!

Sammy and PG were fighting for pool rights! It's my turn now! No, it's my turn!

Sammy met his doppelganger there! He and Chloe had the exact same markings--right down to the smart mark in the middle of their foreheads! That was so cool to see! The guy who owned Chloe said that people had told him she had greyhound in her but he didn't believe it. Now he does!

Big thanks to Brian and Teresa from River Stone Chophouse.
Wish you were here!
