Montana's View of the Reunion
I am so excited! I love to go on adventures and this is my first GRRMF reunion! After a two-hour ride, which admittedly made me a little nervous – because the last long car ride I was on, was when I came into rescue last year. But, when I hopped out of the car and saw dogs like me everywhere, I couldn’t believe my eyes! So many happy dogs on leashes with smiling humans on the other end or on a blanket with their families.
Everyone’s tails and tongues were wagging and all were sniffing and hugging each other! Love was all around us!
I was well positioned between the Welcome Table and the Photo Booth– I got to see everyone as they were walking in and as they put on their best smiles for a family photo. So many beautiful goldens – tall and small ones, lean and clean ones, round and wide ones, petite and sweet ones – it was incredible! I remembered that I used to be round and wide but good food and lots of exercise helped me to shed 30 pounds and I feel so much better. I shared that secret in the ears of some of my new friends that I met, and they winked at me as if to say, they wanted to shape up too!
The Welcome Table Team was handing out fabulous goodie bags loaded with cool stuff – from toys to bandanas to snacks to trinkets. It was awesome. I was so happy to get mine because there were plenty of goodies for me to share with my two GRRMF brothers at home – next year they are going to come with me to experience all the wonder that I did! It was the best time ever!
