A little diversion today as the felines and the needlepoint yield the floor…They say that every dog has it’s day, and the other night at Petco Park in San Diego, over 300 had theirs! The pooches showed up in record numbers with their humans in tow as they set a Guinness World Record for the most dogs in a pet costume parade prior to the Padres vs the Diamondbacks baseball game. A representative from Guinness was there to authenticate the dogs, count them, check them and double check to make sure all the pooches had at least 2 pieces of clothing to make up their costume. Petco was determined to break the record as they had hundreds of clothing items at hand for the dogs that didn’t come dressed for the parade!

There were little dogs and big dogs. Medium size dogs, itty bitty little ones and really big ones! They were decked out in their very best Padres gear, even Phillies, Red Sox and Mets jerseys, and some were dressed just like their humans. I met a Fenway and a Wrigley and a Shea and I guess there was a theme going on here, naming their pooches after the iconic baseball parks.

Okay for this feline fanatic…I don’t get it and maybe you can explain to me why is it that the really little dogs always bark at the really big dogs?

These were a few of my favorites as human and cannine were really dressed to match!

This pooch was ready for the races…

Now this guy really stole the show! He is on a specially designed Harley just his size. He was sitting there waiting to ride off into the sunset…

As soon as the remote control starts the motorcycle, he stands up and is ready to ride  as his little buddy is in tow. Trust me all eyes were on these two!

After a tough day, I guess I just need a little nap!

and until next time…keep on stitching
