What happens in Vegas stays there… unless you blog about it!

(I have to give credit for the title to my friend Sof! Hilarious!)

I flew home on Sunday completely exhausted but totally re-energized, if that makes any sense. I mean, look at this place!

Regardless of the gorgeous setting, BlogPaws was fabulous. Tons of great sessions, like a report on the state of fleas and ticks (summary: it’s bad… very bad… I’m going to write about this sometime soon) by expert Steve Dale.

Then, there were tons of sessions on the nuts-and-bolts of blogging and social media, lots of great brands to learn about, and – of course – a good bit of socializing. I was lucky to hang out with so many wonderful women whose blogs can teach me so much about improving things around here!

Oh, and there was a capybara!

And more darling dogs, cats, and ferrets than you would believe – but, unfortunately, when I downloaded all the pics I took, about half of them were corrupt. No clue why, but boo. I did manage to get this darling pic of a sleep Gretel from YouDidWhatWithYourWeiner.com.

I have pages and pages of notes to comb through, and a whole bunch of incredible people to follow up with, but all in all it was an incredible weekend. I learned a lot and can’t wait for next year in Nashville!

In the meantime, I have a lot of catching up to do work-wise and with snuggling my herd. So, for today, I’m going to leave you with this (albeit choppy) video of Tillman, the skateboarding bulldog!
