On Saturday Nov.12th I went to the Atlanta Pet Expo at the North Atlanta Trade Center. I was so surprised at all the people that brought their dogs. So many different kinds too. I was very impressed with all the vendors and their displays. I hope to have a booth there next year. I received a lot on free little gifts and signed up to win a few thing. I met quite a few people and gave little pats to many beautiful dogs. It is so wonderful to see all the people looking at the pet adoption for dogs and cats. I was also surprised that is was FREE admission and parking. That made it even better.
I want to name a couple of Vendors I talked to and I will write about them in my next blog. I met so many and they were all so nice with lots of information. I will also give you their website address so you can get to know them yourself.
