Wordless Wednesday: Visiting the Easter Bunny

Mom likes taking us on outings, especially when she gets the chance to get our picture taken. Saturday Pet Smart offered free pictures with the Easter Bunny and Mom and Dad brought us down to have our pictures taken. We found a giagantic bunny located in a side room waiting for us. Mom warned us this was not a bunny to chase as giant bunnies would not be intimidated by bad Sheltie behavior. We weren't too worried about any bunny and then we saw that Mom wasn't kidding, the bunny really was a GIANT and it walked on two legs. We were very polite to the bunny.

We liked the room the pictures were taken in because Mom closed the door and we were allowed to wander around before we had to approach the bunny. The bunny turned out to have soft hands and gave some good tummy rubs while pictures were being taken. Dog Dad was allowed to snap pictures and the lady from Pet Smart took a picture that she emailed to Mom, too. Dog Dad and Mom said we did a great job and the bunny even gave us packaged treats when we left.

We Survived the Easter Bunny

As you know we are veterans of the Santa visits, but this Easter Bunny thing was unchartered territory. Dogs chase bunnies. It is the way of the world. We have a very friendly relationship with humans, so this Santa guy is nothing but cool. A human sized bunny give you pause.

When we arrived, there was literally a bunny trail to follow to reach the big guy. Along the path were vendors of different whole foods kind of companies trying to give out samples of their food or treats. Not a bad deal as we got to try out several different kinds of treats along the path to see the great bunny. We knew Katy was nervous when she left huge crumbs behind. The doggy vacuum has never been known to leave any traces of anything resembling food behind. This large bunny visit had her spooked.

When we finally arrived at the Bunny Den we found a very friendly bunny and lots of dogs hanging out trying to figure out what we were doing there posing with a bunny. Would our friends find out, what would the neighbors think, etc? However, most of us knew we had no choice. We were going to pose with the bunny. Now I bet you don't know this, but the Easter Bunny wears high top sneakers. Who knew he could fit his big bunny paws into high tops, but they must be magically made to keep those paws toasty warm.

Our picture hasn't arrived yet, but we will share it when it does. We just wanted all of you to know, he isn't such a scary dude after all. For a bunny, he seems to understand how to hold you for the picture without scaring you or squishing too hard. This is good because I can see Mom wanting another trip down the bunny trail.
