Harrison Forbes, author and radio host, will be a speaker at BlogPaws 2013. His career as a dog trainer and animal behaviorist spans more than 20 years and propelled him into the spolight as a highly sought after pet expert.
Because we know that many of our BlogPaws 2013 attendees will be driving to the event with their beloved four-legged family member, we thought this was a timely video to pass along.

I will admit, I am not a good packer. Even if f I go away for an overnight trip I feel a compulsive need to
pack the biggest suitcase I can find, and a carry on and a purse full of other "necessary items." I am always convinced that no matter where I go, it is in the relative vicinity of Mars and likely not a store in site. I am usually, oh so wrong and bring home many of the clothing items I have packed untouched.
This year, I am carpooling to BlogPaws 2013 with a fellow BlogPaws Community POPs member, Katharine McMahon, and I am certain she will want me to be more judicious in my packing!
Here, for first time BlogPaws attendees and for "bad" packers like me are the true must haves for the conference:

By Tom Collins — [Note: This is a rerun of my post from 2011, but I'm pretty sure the hotel and airports haven't moved! ;-D]
We've had some questions about which is the "best" airport to fly into for BlogPaws 2013, so here's the map showing both the two main airports near Washington, D.C.

It's that time of year again. Grocery stores are displaying their yard lines filled with soda and chips. Wings are on sale. Big screen TVs are being purchased just for this event. Parties are being planned. Why? Because it's PUPPY BOWL time! That's right. We're all preparing for hours of fun, cute, adorable, insert any heart warming adjective, fun!
This year you will have the opportunity to have a new experience with the Puppy Bowl by using Yahoo's app called IntoNow. Today, February 3rd, the Puppy Bowl will show up in the app as a show you can watch and engage with. Barking and whining and other puppy noises will have a new meaning with this app sponsored by Subaru. We all love cute puppy photos and this app is going to give you the chance to caption the photos from the Puppy Bowl yourself, so be creative and fun!

While it's true that I do enjoy listening to Coast To Coast AM radio and hearing about individuals with psychic visions and such, I always wonder if Henrietta, my Diva Poodle has psychic abilities! I do know she senses my mood when I'm angry or upset. When I'm having either of these emotions, she sits in front of me and stares at me until I pick her up. Well naturally once I pick her up and notice that she's acting nervous, I force myself to calm down so that she will.
This week's "psychic event" had to do with the mini-vacation the family had taken to the Thousand Islands. I was so excited for this brief getaway, and once I pulled out my suitcase, Henrietta's psychic abilities kicked in. She started hopping in and out of the bag -- making it almost impossible for me to pack. She kept dragging her toys out of the suitcase after I'd so thoughtfully packed them for her! Even if I hadn't picked up her toys and put them in the suitcase and packed her traveling water and food dish, she has a sixth sense for when I might be leaving the house. No matter where I moved in the house, there she was, silently stalking as if to say, "Don't even think you're getting out of this house with that suitcase without me!"
