This past weekend Mom took Bailie and I to Woofstock. We always love a fun outing, but there was some confusion. Apparently, this festival is a spoof name play on the iconic Woodstock. Bailie and I thought Mom said Woodstock. Bailie was totally disappointed when she found out it was not all about that little yellow bird from the Peanuts.
I was disappointed with the music. I heard Woodstock had awesome bands, but this Woofstock thing…well, let’s say the “Teddy Bear Band” with a bunch of mini humans wasn’t what I had imagined. I don’t know why that little girl is staring at me, hasn’t she ever seen a GBGV before?
Bailie was eager to score a goodie bag for us. She hopped right up and selected our bag. This girl is not shy, and often forgets her manners when she gets excited. I know, she is still young, but she does represent our breed and should behave accordingly.
Bailie couldn’t wait for someone to pay attention to her so she could hand out her brand spanking new business cards, I bought for her. She designed them herself. In my opinion, they are a bit too teenager/girlie girl, but she thought they match her personality. Mine are a bit more business like. Of course, I had my own business cards along as well. Everyone wants to know about us and our breed, so we carry them around all the time and pass them out.
I found this funny playhouse thing to pose with.
Bailie did some bobbing for tennis balls to win a prize…which was some treats. I wouldn’t pick up a tennis ball if it was filled with treats, so I let her handle that. I find tennis balls boring.
Hey Sugar! This one is for you! Couldn’t resist getting a shot of me by the poop bags stand. My friend, Sugar, is the dog behind the Scoop That Poop blog hop.
Bailie goes to day care at the Dog Day Getaway close to where we live, but she insisted on getting a photo of herself by the Adogo booth. Our cousin Lena sometimes goes to Adogo because it is close to her house.
Bailie was blown away by the sojos booth. This was the highlight of Woofstock for her! You can see how polite she was and she was totally listening to everything the guy told us! We have never tried this brand before. We were interested in their treats and they were good. All natural beef, lamb, or turkey, freeze dried, and super tasty. We may have to get some of these for our nose work and/or tracking rewards.
And the thievery goes to…
Yep, it goes to me, Emma. I couldn’t control myself at the Trader Joes booth! Gramma has been buying us their biscuits for years and we so love them, but they had a big bowl full of beef and chicken jerky and sticks. I have never had them before and the smell of them overwhelmed my senses. When Mom looked away for a second, I did it. I reached out and pulled that big bowl towards me with my nose. I knocked several items off the table in the process, but I did not care. I got my mouth on a couple of these delectables and could not stop. Mom forced me down but I popped up right away like a tight spring. It was not good, I had to be dragged away with those few morsels I managed to steal locked firmly in my jaws. I’m sure you are all shocked about my behavior, but sometimes even a mature girl like myself loses control. No harm done, but that was the mischief for the day!
I am joining the Monday Mischief blog hop brought to you by Alfie’s Blog, Snoopy’s Dog Blog, My Brown Newfies.
Sometimes a smell is just too irresistable I guess! Bet those treats tasted even better since you took ’em yourself.
Wags (and purrs) Life with Dogs and Cats
The crime was definitely worth the time!
Hey, a girl gotta have fun! It looks like both of you had lots of fun!
It was a dog function, so I was just being a dog.
Well what is a girl to do when there is a big bowl of totally yummy treats just sitting there waiting to be eaten. You are a scent hound after all and that scent was overwhelming right???
That scent was out of this world good! Couldn’t hold back!
LOl it was there for the taking for sure. Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
And I didn’t mind being the taker.
Ha ha ha Emma! that’s a great story. We love that story here–it is totally something I would do too! What a great day you had. My sister Lilly likes Bailie’s cards. They are girlie girl I guess! Have a great day, your doodle friend Dash
It was kind of fun, but I wish I had been able to steal more of those treats.
Emma – good score. What’s mom thinking walking you right past all those treats – of course you had to grab some! A girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.
Exactly! She let me have one of the cookies, but I get those all the time. I wanted the yummy stuff.
Nice find!! We totally would have done the same thing! BOL!!
I made my wishes pretty clear to mom on that bowl of treats.
Ah…leave it to the lure of nose work! Ya take what ya can get- the nose knows! Would have done it myself if my sister didn’t beat me to the goodies most of the time. She is a pig disguised as a PBGV – I’m glad we GBGV’s ( more mature ones) have more poise and restraint!

Normally Bailie is the one that gets into trouble. I’m quite well behaved, but that bowl was simply irresistible!
LOL…Emma even the most polite dogs have a hard time around fabulous treats.
Sometimes I just can’t help myself I guess.
If they didn’t WANT you to have them… they should NOT have put them out there. RIGHT?
What a SUPER DUPER GRAND TIME that must have been. Even with the bit of Wood/WOOFstock confusion.
Very true! I think Mom just thought I shouldn’t help myself to the entire bowl and knock everything off the table doing it. I didn’t care. Those treats were worth it.
Emma, I’m shocked. I thought Bailie was the mischief girl in the family! 😉
She is, but maybe I’m starting to learn from her now, LOL!
Looks like you two had tons of fun! Emma-we give 12 paws up for the steal!!!!
Thanks, I did get a mouthful and it was well worth any trouble I got in.
First of all, the humans weren’t real bright leaving a bowl of treats in doggie reach! But Emma I am totally jealous because I wouldn’t be able to reach! Love Dolly
Believe me, I can stretch myself pretty long when necessary and my nose can grab stuff from there.
Looks like you guys had a blast. And you reminded Bailie that all her new tricks are old hat for you.
Amazingly, she did not steal anything!
Looks like such a fun time! Some things are worth stealing 😉
We had a good time and enjoyed some good treats which was real nice!
Hey Emma, I love Bailey’s business card, it captures her PAWsonality. Looks like it was oodles and doodles of fun. I’m loving the pictures….
Thank you. Bailie loves her new cards too.
Now Emma, I do not believe this was thievery at all. Those treats were out as a free sample and you helped yourself to your share. Nothing more. It looks like Woofstock was FUN! Happy Monday.
Oz
They were free samples, but the entire bowl was meant to be shared according to Mom. I wanted it all just for me.
I’m not shocked, I understand your feeling… we are the offsprings of wolves :o) I bet the girl looked at you and thought: once I want such a dog too :o) I like the idea with the business cards, think my dad should make me some too :o)
Bailie and I love giving out our cards and people love to get them too. You really should have a set of your own too.
Emma-dog, you know a good thing when you find it. I love Baillie’s fan-girl cards, too!
Good thing there was no wabbit jerky or I would have taken the whole booth down to get it!
Woofstock looks like so much fun! xoxoxoxoxox, Ku
It was fun, a bit smaller than we had hoped for, but we had a good time.
BOL!!!! Too funny!!
Looks like you had a ton of fun too!
ღ husky hugz ღ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
Good food and good fun, what more does a dog need?
That looks like a super fun time and we have seen that Woofstock thing around but now we feel like we have been there!
Never seen kitties attending them, so good you got to see it with me!
Wow – what a fun time! (Except for that Teddy Bear Band horror….) Rita says, “Go, Emma!” She would probably never be brave enough to attempt that mischief. Who could expect you to resist such tasty treats?
It was a terrible temptation, I just lost control of my senses!
Emma, this is so shocking! All along we thought Bailie would turn out to be the thief! BOL Once in a while, we all have to let loose a little….why should the young ones get to have all the fun and mischief, right?
With all of Bailie’s naughtiness at home lately (been posting it on my fb page) this little slip of mine was close to nothing. Nevertheless, I shouldn’t have done that.
Bol go Emma!
Sometimes, a girl just has to misbehave!
EMMA! You did what????? Looks like you and Baillie had a wonderful time at Woofstock. XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
I know, hard to believe, but if you ever tried these Trader Joe’s treats, you would have done the same!
LOL. Really can’t blame you, Emma. Those looked very tasty!
They were so yummy! I would go and steal again! Hope Mom doesn’t see this reply 😉
Sounds like a lot of fun! Wish we could’ve gone too!
It was fun. We weren’t there all that long as it was kind of a small event, but it was fun.
Bailie and Emma are so cute! Looks like they had fun at Woofstock! 😀
We had fun, lots of good smells and eats there.
Way to go Emma!
I was pretty proud of myself even though it was rather embarrassing being caught.
LOL Emma. Excellent mischief! We love Sojo’s treats. They are super yummy!
Bailie is wild about them. It is the first time we have had them.
Oh Emma! We would have done the same thing!
It seems like most dogs side with my decision to steal the entire bowl. What do humans think leaving temptation out like that?
Bailie’s card looks great! In her defense, they shouldn’t put out samples if you can’t sample them!
I didn’t see any signs saying only take one or dogs not allowed to help themselves 😉
Awesome!! Donna doesn’t have namecards D: Boo!
I have my cards and Bailie has her own cards. It works well for us.
what fun, I love Bailies new business cards.
Thank you, she thinks they are pretty pawsome!
Mica is just not in to treats, it’s hard to find any she will even taste. However, Aspen would have pulled the whole bowl off and just started eating 🙂
Bailie normally is the one that would have no qualms about destroying the entire table to steal the bowl of treats, but I just couldn’t resist the odor of these ones.
Surely they were put there for you to help yourself? It would be rude to refuse!
Very true and it was dumb to clutter up the table with all the bags and stuff.
Hey Emma
Me thinks Bailie is learning really well from you buddy, great mischief! 🙂
I hope you’re having a fun day,
Your pal Snoopy 🙂
Trust me, I think she has a direct line to the devil as she gets into things none of us other dogs have ever tried!
