Open Day

Sunday April 30th – First, Happy Australia Birthday to my husband, Grant! Tomorrow will be his US birthday.


Today was Guide Dogs Open Day. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate very well and it was a drizzly cold day. About 8,000 people braved the elements and enjoyed all the demos, venders, and booths anyway. The demonstrations were really good. There was a GD puppy demo, Training dogs demo and demos from the customs dogs and a local obedience club.




In addition to the demos there were informational booths about GDV, vendors selling dog toys, foods, and face paining for the kids (both the little ones and the big ones!)




Afterwards there was food and drinks for the staff (after all the clean up of course)!
