Wuffmeet New Years 2010 Report

[giza]

Last weekend I flew out to the Chicago area to visit duncandahusky, takaza, and the usual bunch of folks I know in the midwest at Wuffmeet.

Like the one I went to 2 years ago, I had a good time. Spent a few days hanging out with people, socializing, and sampling some interesting mixed drinks. I also took a few pictures:






Other than that, most of my shots were of a few dogs that joined us:






Don't get me wrong, I don't have any sort of personality trait that gets dogs to pay attention to me. I just made sure to have a cookie in my hand. You'd be amazed at how well that gets the attention of dogs!

Feeding dogs people food is (or should be) a big no-no. :X

However, tormenting them with it does produce admittedly interesting pictures (http://www.flickr.com/photos/simbab/4200883417/in/set-72157622914561083/).

(Ideally you shouldn't do that either because then they expect it, or get the idea that eating people food is an okay thing to do, i.e. stealing food from people.)

I find that often it doesn't have to be food to grab their interest, it just has to be something they don't know what is, but which might be food.

Happy New Year Giza!

I have to ask, Who's samoyed is in the pictures? (The big white fluff ball)

I didn't feed them anything. I just made sure to have my camera handy while munching on food.

That's Brianna, who belongs to Roho & Genet. She's beautiful and friendly, but alas not very bright :-)
