#BlogPaws: So Many Friends, So Little Oz

As many of you know, Ma attended her first BlogPaws conference in Nashville last week and she took along Little Oz, not me.  My good friend Sugar's mom couldn't go, so Ma took along Flat Sugar as well.  Flat Sugar and Little Oz enjoy traveling together.

Little Oz and Flat Sugar went to the BlogPaws Conference in Nashville

Ma met many of our blogging friends at the Conference including Miss Flea from Jones Natural Chews, Preston from Preston Speaks, Pepper Pom, Pierre and Bentley from Barking from the Bayou, Phoebe from Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them, Rama from Walks with Rama, Carma Poodale, Luna from Beagles and Bargains, Talent Hounds, Lulu from Life with Beagle, Riley from Oh My Shih Tzu and....Chloe, Hank, Putt-Putt and Willow from Meet The FurBombers.  That's just naming a few of the people Ma met!  Oh! And the conference is where she met up with Miss Sydney from Chewy.com again and found out about her new blog!

I made a short slideshow (a little over a minute) out of some of the photos from the conference.  Make sure your volume is "on" so you can hear the fun music! How many friends do you recognize in there?


We also want to give a *high paw* to all the brands and sponsors we met including Mars Petcare, PetSafe, Pet360, Full Moon Pet, Merrick Pet Care, dogIDs, Pets Add Life, The Honest Kitchen, Primal Pet Foods, Dog for Dog, Hill's, Red Roof Inn, Virbac, Bissell, and Dr. Harvey's.  There are so many more that we haven't named but we are thankful to them all for putting on such a great event!  You can see a full list of them HERE.

And lastly, we want to thank BlogPaws for planning, hosting, etc. the conference.  It was such a wonderful opportunity to learn from our fellow bloggers, share what we know with others and meet all kinds of new friends - people, dogs, cats, rats, pigs, hamsters, ducklings (Miss Flea had those and she posted them on her blog) and ferrets.

Now, I am just waiting for my swag box to arrive since there was so much stuff, Ma had to ship it home.  I hear that I may be sharing some of my swag in an upcoming givewaway, so stay tuned!

Happy Not-At-All Wordless Wednesday!

  29. Hope you enjoy your swag box! We haven't got our swag yet - can you believe that? Mommy came back and had to go to work. Her priorities are all messed up. She said it was really nice meeting your mom even though it was such a quick meeting. She'll be doing her homework though and being in touch with her in the next few weeks.

    Flat Sugar, what an adorable idea (so much cuter than Flat Stanley). I may have to do that with Luna next year. I can't see driving 1400+ miles from Seattle with a greyhound. Hope to see you there!

  35. I still can't believe this was your mom's first blogpaws. How very exciting and looks like a great time.

  36. Oz, I am so bummed I did not get to meet your Mom!!! I thought I saw her a couple of times (though I didn't see your stand-in) but never could make my way to her. I didn't realize this was her first conference either. It was such a fun time, but SO hard to get to meet or spend time with everyone we wanted to.

  37. Our first BlogPaws conference was in D.C. Heather and Mr. K came, too. It was a little too much for us. Mr. K was more interested in the feline attendees than letting us learn! Much love, The Scottie Mom.
