Rosy here today to tell you my thoughts on the
BlogPaws 10th Anniversary Conference!
The conference was held at the Sheraton Crown Plaza Hotel. I really enjoyed the accommodations but even nicer than the hotel, was all the wonderful attention I received from the staff! From the moment I checked in until the moment I checked out, I was petted, loved and told how cute I was in my pink stroller!
Unfortunately, I should have got in in writing!! Now that I'm home, my brothers are not treating me nearly as nice!
On the first day of the conference, Mama and I went down to check in and get our name tags! I was a little hurt when I didn't get a name tag...
UNTIL THEY GAVE ME MY SWAG BAG!!
What's swag, you ask?? Think nommy doggy treats, toys and all kinds of stuff, JUST FOR ME!!
What's that Mama?? Share...with my brothers??
We'll talk later about that...
In the mornings, while Mama was getting ready to start the day, I would look outside our window to let her know if she would need an extra sweater during our morning walk.
It was a bit windy and chilly for a couple of our walkies, but overall we enjoyed the fresh air! Kansas City is a beautiful city with just the right mix of parks and sidewalks! I enjoyed reading local peemail and even got to talk to a few birdies!
After our walkies, it was time to get to work! Every morning I hopped in my ride and we would take the elevator down to the Exhibition Hall!
We would start with a good breakfast, Mama even let me have a little bit of BACON one morning!
Then we would attend some sessions about bloggy stuff. Mama would learn...
...and I would take a nap!
A fair trade, I think!
Learning napping sure can make a girl hungry! I think it's time for another snack, don't you, Mama?
We also spent some time walking around and talking to lots of nice folks from companies that Mama and I might want to do reviews for in the future! This was our very first conference though, and Mama was mostly keeping her ears open and I concentrated on being cute!
After all that PR work, more snacks were needed....thank goodness for Chewy!
One of our favorite parts of the conference was seeing friends that we know in Blogville, but hadn't met in the furs yet!
I can't believe I got to meet and hang out with Koru Bear from Golden Woofs!!
Mama and KB's Mama have been friendly for almost 9 years now, but this is the first time they met in the furs! From what I hear, My Angel Sissy Dory and Koru Bear's Angel Sissy Sugar both had beautimous Smileys!
I learned lots from the Emma's sisters(the original sassy gals), Madison and Bailie from My GBGV Life
when our Mamas hung out together.
We even had the chance to meet this cute little guy!
Read all about his predecessors over at
Healing Whiskers! Mama was very impressed with how sweet and well trained this furry guy was!
Not only did we see old furiends, we met a TON of new furiends too!! We couldn't believe the variety of good natured pets in attendance. Mama said this was great for me because I could practice my socializing skills!
Before I knew it, Mama said it was time to pack up our stuff and start the journey home. Mama sure did over pack, I sure hope she can fit everything back in the Rogue!
You made sure to save room in the car for MY SWAG BAG and my chewy, right Mama??
Goodbye BlogPaws...I'll see you next year
in FLORIDA!!!
Still wondering about the SWAG BAG, aren't you??
Don't worry, I'll show you what it looks like out of the bag tomorrow!
In the mean time, do you think I should share it with
Arty and Jakey or keep it all to myself?

You got to meet so many new friends, Rosy! You're the one who did all of the hard work so you deserve all of the loot - unless of course, you want to share with your brothers!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, but now you reminded my mom she forgot to pick up her snack bag! They used to be right there by the rooms where classes were held, but this year was different. Oh well, we always got our snacks and that was most important!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed all of your photos sweet Rosy, especially since we didn't get to go this year.
ReplyDeleteOMD! OMD! this was so much fun!!! i enjoyed your visit almost as much as you did and i want to hold that therapy rat. i love the blog and added it to my feedly.... what super duper idea. and so many beautiful pups at the meeting with you. OF COURSE you were the prettiest of them all... hope you are sharing that stuff in the bag with you siblings. tell mama i feel she could have taught the class on what is listed on the slide show..
ReplyDeleteYou and your momma sure had a fun time at the conference. We hope you decided to share some of your swag with your brothers.
ReplyDeleteOMD, what a grreat time you had!! I can't wait to see what's in the swag bag. I think you should pick a few SMALL things to share with your brothers and keep the rest for you!

ReplyDeleteOMD Rosy, you worked it gal!!! Meeting and greeting like a pro. So glad it was such a successful and fun trip for you and mama. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
What fun Rosy...OMCs and you met so many nice pups and their peeps too.
ReplyDeleteMOL Mom always over packs. But you two had several nights on the road in different temps and climates so you had to be prepared.
Now as for sharing:
You must first find out what the Boyz had while you were gone. Maybe they had some extra yummy that you didn't get. all this being said in the end if you want to keep your girlish bikini figure you might want to share the treats.
Hugs Aunty Madi
What a great time for you and Mom, Rosy!!! Every time Mom reads about BlogPaws in KC, she gets more and more disappointed that the timing was so off for her to get there. We hope they come back to a location near us again soon. And YOU too.

ReplyDeleteIt sure looks like you and your Mama had a wonderful time, Rosy!! We've had that swag bag in the past, and know just how much is in it, so you definitely need to share. :)
