Yappy Hour

Yappy Hour Returns

The weather was cloudy

and perfect for dogs

We had a few time outs

 for getting a little too yappy

at Yappy Hour...BOL!

There was a hot dog eating contest

and Augie D was the chosen one

to represent the 3 Goobers.

He qualified for the

small dog category.

There were 10 dogs... 

a Morkie, a Chiweenie, a Poodle and a Pug

were among the contenders.

We figured that the Pug

would be Augie's biggest competition.

The Poodle won.

Oh the shame...
