Amazing Pet Expos

2013 Windy City Amazing Pet Expo Recap | #amazingpetexpo

Written by Rachel Phelps

We recently had another driving trip to an Amazing Pet expo – Chicago!  Since Chicago is about a six hour drive for us, I told Mom … lets roadtrip it.  I told her I wanted to see the sites and didn’t want to be stuck in a carrier like I am on a plane. Mom warned me it would get boring, but I didn’t believe her (gosh there is so much farm land to drive though).  I offered to drive to give Mom a break, but she said nope, and something about me not having a license (I need to Google how to get a dog driving permit)!  But anyway, here are some of the highlights from my Chicago adventure.

Amazing Pet Expos decided to mix things up this time and instead of the black and red backdrops, they had red and white.  I guess they figured out white is the most flattering color for a dog … hehehe.  Here is my video I made of my booth and my awesome sponsors.  You have to watch it … I have a close up about fifteen seconds in!

 When the expo opened my booth got so busy that I had to bring my Dad to be my greeter.  Here he is talking to some attendees telling them how awesome I am (OK he is probably saying to go visit our website … but that means I’m awesome, right?)

Windy City Pet Expo (Chicago) was great!  However, I think next time I come to visit, I will pick a time when it is not 95 degrees out.  But don’t worry Windy City, I will be back!
