I’ve been home from Atlanta and BarkWorld for just over twelve hours and my brain is still on overdrive. Yet, I couldn’t wait a second longer to share some of my experiences with you. You can count on reading many stories over the next few weeks, including a few giveaways, so you’ll want to pay attention to be sure. In the meantime, as I catch up on cuddles with the Shivster, I thought I would share a glimpse of the 5,684 pictures I took over the course of four days.
You know, just to make those who missed out on the party incredibly jealous. I know I would be. The event was nothing like I expected. Until you attend something like this, it’s hard to understand how overwhelmingly… Well, how much actually goes on. It’s pretty wild. Anyway, Shiva is giving me sad eyes so I’d better get to the photos!
And of course, the best part of any big trip, is coming home to family.
The only thing that could have made it even more fun, is if all of you had been there.















































I’ve been thinking about you and hoping you got home safely with Sandy pushing inland!
It looks like you had a blast!

It was so great finally getting to meet you in person, Kristine! I’m glad you made it home safely and I hope Sandy doesn’t hit you guys too hard. I’m already looking forward to doing it all again next year.

Me too! I am hoping I’ll be able to go again. Perhaps now that I am armed with all this great info on getting sponsors, it will be a lot easier…
So glad to hear you made it home safe! (What is it about pet blogger conferences that Mother Nature doesn’t like?)
Love all the pictures – looks like you had a great time. Of course my favorite pic is the last one.
I bet she’s happy you’re home.

Looks like you had plenty of Shiv-stitutes so you didn’t get too lonely in Atlanta.
Glad you got home safely. Can’t wait to hear all about it over the coming weeks.

I am so glad you made it home safely. I bet Shiva really missed you (and your PH too). The cat? Hmmm….
Thanks for sharing the pictures. I can tell that there was a lot going on! Holy cow! I look forward to reading about your experience. I would love to attend one some day. So interesting to see all the different things going on!

Glad you had a lovely time can’t wait to hear all about it!
I’m glad you had such a good time and that you got home safely! Hopefully, you’ll have a little time to recover. I know I was really glad I didn’t have to get up and go to work the day after I got home from BlogPaws.

It was really great to meet you and Pepper! I hope you had a safe drive home!
Hey, looks like you had a lot of fun! Oddly enough, we were in Pearson Airport at the same time. I was picking up Sean from his weekend in North Carolina while you were waiting for your transfer to the East Coast.

That’s too funny, and too bad we didn’t meet up. I am glad Sean was able to get back to Canada in time to avoid the storm!
I know! I saw your update on FB when I got back from the airport.

Wasn’t it the best? I’m so glad we BOTH got the opportunity to go! I feel like I have enough things to fill a week of posts. Just a great, great experience.
Glad you made it home safely and were welcomed back by that amazing little face!
