Thanks to everyone who came out today and braved the cold and wind! Yes horrendous winds which stayed with us all day and it didn't warm up until later in the day but still burrrr! The winds made setting up our booth extremely hard so we ended up having a redneck booth? Skeleton tent (no tent) just the frame and the table cloth was held down with bungee cords on our event table. My brother would be so proud of me :) My new Malamute Chalkboard came in just in time too and got to show it off today except I forgot to write something on it!

Thanks to Rick, Delilah, Miki, Bear, Ron, Artica, Issac, Margie, and Keno. Keno made his debut today at his first event! Not too many pictures from today; my hands were too cold but here are a few.

March Mal Madness Yappy Hour 3/12/09

Thanks to everyone who came out in the cold and rain, and braved horrendous work hour traffic to attend our 1st Yappy Hour at Barker Street! We had a great time and were able to meet a couple of new Malamute friends as well as other doggie friends! A fellow rescuer with Houston Collie Rescue, Mary, won the raffle "basket"!! Yeah Mary!!

A huge thanks to Jay and Frank at Barker Street Dog Bakery for providing the opportunity; Houston Rockets, Natural Pawz Sugar Land and Perry's Steakhouse for their generous donations to the raffle basket!

Thanks again to Rick and Delilah with Miki and Bear, Kim and Carl with Mocha, Julieanne and Nemisis for helping with the event. We raised over $500 for the Malamutes!! Woooowoooo!!! Click here and here to view some pics!

Weight Pull 3/7-3/8/09

The Mals were represented well this weekend with 3 Mals (all female!) participating in the weight pull (Miki, Nikita, Skye) in Austin. Lynn was able to join us with Roadside participating too. Miki only needed 2 more pull events to qualify for her AKC Weight Pull title and she succeeded!! Woo Hoo! She also got 2 more 1st place ribbons for her weight class.This is a fun event to watch and a great sport for the Mals! Click here to see pics!

SPCA Mutt Strut 3/7/09

A few of us got up early Saturday to participate in the 2nd annual Mutt Strut at Bush Intercontinental Airport! We strutted 1 mile down an inactive runway and saw a few planes land while walking. I wonder what the passengers were thinking as they saw us out their windows while landing!! LOL! We had a fun time and enjoyed getting out with the fur-kids! Click here to view pics. Thanks to Delilah with Buck and Bear; Kim and Carl with Mocha, Aurora and Nate; Jamie with Zelda and Master Chief; Frank and Debbie with Nilla and Anya; and honorary members Renee and Sandy with her GSD for joining the Snow Dog team!!
