I like dogs and hate cancer so on Saturday, Lincoln and I woke up early to do the American Cancer Society Bark for Life walk. The walk was being held to raise money for cancer and until the day of, I wasn’t sure if it was for doggie cancer or human cancer but regardless, raising money for any kind of cancer is a good thing. You could register as part of team or individually, which I did since I didn’t know anyone else who was doing it.
We were one of the first ones to arrive, which gave us a lot of time to check our the different sponsors and vendors plus get some swag!
- My first time trying Cake Batter fro yo–amazing!
- You can bet your sweet butt, I stuffed as many as I could in my purse then took a couple of trips to my car to drop off!
Soon, the area filled up with all kinds of dogs
There were big dogs
…..and small dogs
….and even dressed up dogs!
I thought of my favorite dachshund Basil when I saw these dolled up pups
Lincoln wasn’t doing too well with the outrageous number of dogs and people there, he can be a bit skiddish at times
But once I grabbed him in my arms and carried him around like a baby he was fin
Dog has me wrapped around his finger paw I tell you.
Soon, we were off walking, the walk was a 1.57 mile walk around Uptown Charlotte starting across the street from Bank of America stadium
When I took this picture, I had to stop myself from laughing. All the dogs were going crazy sniffing everything in sight. I pictures one of e dogs finding a human hand or foot and cue in the Law and Order music–it reminded of a situation that would kick off an episode. Anyone else? No? Just me? Ok.
It was the perfect day for a walk! There were a lot of bitches for Lincoln to hit on, sights to see such as the Carolina Panthers practice field, skyline of Uptown Charlotte and Bank of America Stadium, where the Panthers play when they decide to show up.
