Have any of my A-Z blog challenge friends blogged daily about BlogPaws 2014? Lots of my blogging friends are in the A-Z challenge this month, but I couldn’t commit to all those days and letters of the alphabet, so I did not join. Today it hit me like a tennis ball in the head, that someone should blog every letter about BlogPaws 2014. I haven’t seen anyone doing it, so I decided to just do it myself in one post today. It was fun trying to cover all the letters. All my words are random, all the events at BlogPaws are definitely not covered, but it is a start. Enjoy, and if you haven’t got your ticket yet, you better hurry and register! Bailie and I will be taking Mom this year, we would love to meet you! Last year she went alone with a flat Emma, I howled never again when she returned!

Today I’m joining the Barks and Bytes Blog Hop hosted by 2 Brown Dawgs and Heart Like a Dog! Join up and share in the fun, or just visit a few new blogs!
Thanks so much for joining the hop with that very creative list. It sounds like you will be having lots of fun! We are headed your direction, sort of, to a seminar in Wisconsin that weekend. 🙂
Maybe Katie can drive over and visit you 😉
My goodness, you can spell. Have a nice day.
I’m a smart girl…that is what Mom tells me.
You’re going to Vegas, Emma!! 🙂 At the same time you are in Vegas, the mom and I will be in Pennsylvania for the PBGV Nationals. I am just a companion puppy, and we are going to meet and mingle. The Bostons tell me the mom loves Vegas – she is not big on gambling, but loves the shows. Somebody named Shania is on her bucket list. I am pawsitive we will be hearing lots about Vegas. XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
There is a GBGV event where you are going too, we were invited to attend, but Vegas is more important for us. We will see how I like Vegas.
Great list, Emma. Know you’ll have a barking good time!
I’ll be howling the whole time I bet!
Hope you have a great time. Wish we could come. Maybe some year Mom will go and bring all five of us in a cardboard.
No more of that allowed here. Mom is not leaving me behind, I need to go myself.
BOL BOL Yappy Hour. You are so going to have a great time. Have a tremendous Thursday.
Best wishes Molly
You and I would have a blast at yappy hour! Too bad all my friends won’t be there.
Sounds so exciting but a little far for Katie and me to drive, otherwise we would come to meet you!
It is like 25 hours for us to drive, but we can do it. We’ve made it to Florida a few times so we know how it goes.
That is an awesome alphabet of BlogPaws! Personally, I like all the loot that Mom brings home for us. I can’t wait to see what the brings this year!
Bunny
I can’t wait to see the loot right away and then visit the exhibitors with my puppy eyes so they will fork over even more 😉 Bummer you can’t come, but then again you would be so well behaved it might make me look bad LOL!
That was a awesome post and very clever! Way to join in on the A to Z challenge all in one day. Have a wonderful day.
It just popped in my mind and I figured why not.
What an excellent post Emma, so educational. Can’t wait to meet you and Bailie. Unfortunately Jack & Maggie are staying home guarding the house while we are gone. Good job on the A to Z!
We are leaving our Kuvasz guard dog home to guard the homestead while Bailie and I enjoy Vegas 🙂
Great list! Looks like you’re getting excited for BlogPaws – I’m sure you’ll have a blast!
Watch the national news…if we win big or get in big trouble you may see our mugs on there!
Ha! You’d have to get in a LOT of trouble to make the international news highlights here – so I hope that doesn’t happen! But I’ll follow on social media for highlights.
Or win a huge jackpot 🙂 Most likely you won’t hear from me.
Great idea for a post! Oh how I wish I was going to the blogpaws conference!
ღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
Mom loved it and I think it will be even better with me along!
Emma, seriouslies, that was WAY WAAAY cool!!! We wish we weren’t such raidy cats and could come with our mom. Would you do us a favor and look after her and make sure she doesn’t do anything to embarrass us or anything? ‘Specially Friday afternoon when she gives her presentation? 😉
I will keep my nose on her since I am more of a sight than scent hound 😉 Better make sure she hooks up with us!
You did great Emma, see you really could have joined the challenge:) If we send you a photo of us will you take us with you to Blog Paws since Mom can’t change her plans and bring us along?
Looks like she will have to do the flat doodle thing. Mom did it last year but I put my paws down and said I’m going this year 😉
I am totally impressed! I must say if it wasn’t in Vegas at the Westin it could have been tougher. See you there! Love Dolly
Sniff you out in a couple weeks!
Well done on X, I was wondering how you’d swing that. Looks like you guys are going to have an awesome time – looking forward to checking out your trip.
X was the absolute worst but I learned a new word. It is going to be a blast! Poolside with some umbrella drinks…or maybe inside in a seminar? Oh well.
Dang, you sure covered that quite nicely!
I put on my GBGV thinking cap and it was pretty easy.
Thanks so much for joining the blog hop Emma! I love what you did with the A to Z challenge. I so wish I could go, but Sampson needs me at home, I will really miss meeting you and Bailie and seeing mom again. 🙁 I know you’ll have a wonderful time and Mom will learn lots and you will come home and share with all of us that couldn’t go.
Now I’m off to look up Xenial….
X was a tough one to figure out! I wish you were going too, but we understand. Maybe next year 🙂
You deserve a standing ovation for that post! A month’s worth of posting in one day! I can’t wait to meet! We will have to get a pic of Emma and Flat Bentley : )
Too bad the real Bentley won’t be there but flat is better than nothing 😉
Great overview from A to Z. So looking forward to my first time attending! Hope to meet you there.

You will love it. Mom had an awesome time last year and can’t wait for this year!
Great post but you left out “C”—-CATS!!!! The Cat Lounge is back………AND….there is a special Bissell Reception Wednesday night for the early birds who are arriving on Wed!!!!
Actually, believe it or not I had the cat lounge when I first started the letters but I decided to change it, and there were way too many things with B for the Bissell reception. That is why I had the disclaimer that not everything was included 🙂 Hopefully we will be there in time for the Bissell reception, depends on the driving on Wednesday.
What a great post Emma. Fun and informative!
Thanks, it was really fun to write.
Thank you for doing the whole alphabet all in one post so we didn’t have to wait the whole month to hear all your good points! Have a great time in Vegas! Will you and Bailie be flying?
No, we will be driving Mom. Mom doesn’t like us to fly unless there is no choice…can you say road trip!
That was a great idea and great job doing that all in one post, Emma. Those are all excellent reasons to go, but I won’t be going this year. 🙁 I am hoping for next year, and this year will have to live vicariously through the rest of you who will tell us all about it.
Mom says once you go, you will be addicted, she is since going last year. I hope I love it too! Lots of petting and snacks I hear, so it should be a winner for Bailie and I too.
Mommy can’t go but sure wishes she could:( We wish she could too. Maybe next year!
Bummer, it will be so much fun!
Great list – AND I learned a new word! (Xenial!) Wish I could be there to meet you! Meeting the dogs would be the funnest part!
Well, lots of my friends won’t be there, but there is always next year. I know we will have a great time.
Emma, you made our mom laugh today. She said your picture is great and the idea of you in Las Vegas made her smile all day! She says you better keep an eye on that mischievous Bailie in Vegas!! Play the slots for us! your doodle friend, Dash.
We will keep a tight leash on that little teenage troublemaker for sure! It will be a blast and I am sure I will have a lot to share on my blog and social media! Many laugh at the thought of me in Vegas, but they may really laugh once I am there and put out photos!
Wow! Such a great list Emma! I really wish that I could go but I cannot =/ I did get offered a sponsorship. So hard to have to say no.
Geez! Next time if you can’t take it, let us know. We are paying our own way, but it will still be great. Would love to have a sponsor next time.
Well done! I’m very impressed with your list.
I figure it is not bad for a dog 🙂
Ohhh Riley and I can’t wait to meet you! What a great and creative list… our excitement level just went up again!!
I know, waiting is a real killer. It is a long drive, but since we can’t wait to be there it won’t be so bad. See you there!
Happy Easter to you all, we hope you get’z lot’z of Berd or Thuna wez will see’z youz
Tuezday xxxxoooxxxx
Mollie and Alfie
Happy Easter…we are going with ham…Mom actually found ham cookies for us at the store! Can you stand it? Who has ham cookies…we do now! Posting them on fb tomorrow.
Good one for X. You had to reach deep for that one 🙂
A special thank you to Google for helping with the letter X 😉
I wish I could be there to meet you and Bailie. I met your mom at BlogPaws last year, she’s really pawesome. You’ll have a great time! So many people, pets, and stuff to look at!
Oh no, I thought you would be there. Bummer, maybe next year?
What a fab idea – you are going to have the most amazing time!!
Look out Vegas!
