Mutt Strut 2009

Mean, vicious pitbull alert!

Sunday we headed out to Indianapolis Motor Speedway to participate in the 6th annual Mutt Strut, which is a fundraiser for the Humane Society of Indianapolis.

I organized a team for Indy Pit Crew. We had a really great turnout. Everyone's bullies (and honorary bullies like Ellie Mae) were well-behaved.



As we were walking the track, our group was looking for other bully owners to introduce ourselves and recruit volunteers. I saw a couple with 3 red-nosed pitties and called out to them. The gal asked me "Is there a hell-bron in your group?" It turns out that they know Abby, Aaron's sister! It's a small world. We snapped a picture with them as proof.



Both Joey and Ellie Mae had a good time, despite the hot weather. Poor Joey, his little feeties got pretty abraded so he was hurting at the end. Don't worry, we pampered him when we got home.

Thanks for attending Mutt Strut '09, Nichole! I love that top picture with the whole crew - looks like IPC had an awesome turnout! You should post your pics on our flickr group (http://www.flickr.com/groups/mutt-strut/): you never know, it might help you get some volunteers or at least promote some pitties.

I wanted to do that - but I didn't get around to it.
