Take Me Out to the Ballgame w/Keefer & Halo!

**Cassidy's Mom** · 07-19-2009, 01:44 PM

Friday night was the annual Oakland A's Dog Day event, and of course we had to go! We went last year with D & K and it was a lot of fun. As expected, the doggers were VERY excited and vocal when we first got there, (

) but fortunately they did settle down. Individually they're pretty good, but together - yikes! My sister came along and brought her little camera so we got lots of pictures!

Keefer gets dressed in his new bandanna while Halo waits her turn

A boxer party

This dog knew exactly what a camera was and kept coming over to have its picture taken

Supporting the team

Meet and greet

"Dude, you've got a big wrinkly head." "DUDE, so do you!!!"

Gettin' a butt scritch from the poop guy

"Got any more of those yummy salmon treats Mom?"

Keefer glows in the late afternoon sun

The year they added a pup parade, where we got to circle the field before going to our seats. Keefer is ready to go while Halo stops to investigate what might be food (excuse me, FOOOOOD!!!!!

) on the ground. Or maybe just a napkin, which she's really into too - weird puppy!

Lining up for the parade

Here's Elsa (board member Skittles42) checking out all the dogs

That's a lot of dogs!!!! They announced that there were 500 dogs there, which was definitely more than last year.

We had tons of space at our seats, the entire row, the row above us and the two rows below us

Keefer: "It's so bright I gotta wear shades"

Handsome Keef

Pretty Halo

Checking out the game....or maybe a food (FOOD!!!!!

) vendor

Tom gets mugged by the dogs

It's hard to hold that big ol' head up all the time

Me and the pupster

Gettin' some Daddy love

Cute pic of Les with Halo

Fun with hats

Poor tired puppy fell asleep and missed the A's WINNING the game against the Angels!

As always - beautiful and stunning dogs!

I wish they had something like that near me for the dogs!

Seems like you had a great day!

Keefer looks like a hat kinda guy but I just don't think it works for Miss Halo. At least not the baseball cap. Now maybe some kinda wide floppy brimmed sun hat...

Looks like a great time was had by all!

That's so cool that everyone was able to bring their dogs to the game. Great pictures!

Wow, what a neat idea! Looks like everyone had fun. Great pics.

That looks like a LOT of fun. My goodness Halo has grown so much. She doesn't look like a puppy anymore.

I'd love to take Ris to something like that but there isn't really a local team here. And we missed the dog day at the park back home.

That looks like so much fun and what a great way to socialize the dogs!

And the A's win!!! I always liked the A's.
