Hi, everydoggie, kittie, hamsterrier, bear and hooman! It's me, Patches. On Sunday, Mom and I went to the Aire Care Fair! The picture above is the tables where peoples could bid on Aire stuffs to benefit the Airedale Rescue Group. My mom donated 4 needle felted sculptures. Three of them were Airedales and one was a black Schnauzer on wheels. All 4 sold! Woohoo! Hollie and Janie are getting their very own Airedale wheelie!
Here's Janie! She looked soooooo pretty in her beautimous pink bow! We also got to meet her mama and Grandmama too! How cool is that?
Here's me and Sally Ann the Welsh Terrier! Isn't she just too cute? Sadly, she had to leave her big brother, Mack, at home, but we were soooooo glad to meet her and her mommy!
The Aire-kid in the back is Asta and we think it's Janie again in the foreground. There were so many Airedales there that we had a hard time keeping up with all the doggies' names.
See the blur on the left side of this picture? That's Sally Ann outrunning all the Airedales and other doggies! She's like a speeding bullett!
There were lots and lots of Airedales and we saw Dennis the Vizla, Chef the Boxer, Mango the relentlessly huge, Dexter the Labradude, a beautiful Weimeraner, a standard black Schnauzer and lots of other non-Aire-kids! Okay, so Dennis, Chef, Mango and Dexter weren't really there, but we saw doggies that looked just like them! The "Mango" doggie was just a puppy and no where near as large as the "relentlessly huge", but he will be a big boy when he grows up.
We all had a really great time running like mad fools in the off-leash area and some of us were busy playing bitey face with doggies we had never met before. The weather was pawfect, but it got a little warm in the afternoon! That was okay, we had lots of water buckets.
It was a really great day and we made loads of money for the Airedale Rescue Group!...which was the point of the whole thing in the first place! I was soooooo excited to get to meet two more of my doggie buddies from Dogs with Blogs! That meant there were 5 DWBers there! Jagger and Ezzy Rider, Janie, Sally Ann and of course, ME!
Aire-hugs,
Patches (and Poppy and Penny too) (Poppy & Penny had fun with the DAD sitter while Mom and I were gone)

That is so good that the Faire went so well. We are very happy for your mom with all the hard work she put into the preparations.

Miss Patches,
I saw you on Sally Ann's blog. Of course she ran fast with all you big old dates chasing her around.
What fun for everybody to get together and congrats on mom for selling all her stuffs.

woooooo.....we are glad you had a good time. wish we could've gone.
We love fairs. There is always lots of food that would go to waste if we didn't snatch it quickly.
Hope you got some of the goodies

Man, how much fun would that have been!! It was great that you could meet up with some of our pals from the blogsphere. We would have loved to be there!!
Mommy and I had a grant time. Thank you so much for inviting us. You are a very cute doggie Patches. I had the best time, and Mommy told me to tell your Mommy she loved meeting other DWB people. I hope I can come to your events in the future, as I really had a blast.

Very nice of Penny and Poppy to stay home and keep your dad company so that he's not too bored!
I'm not familiar with this breed. However, they seem to be great companions.
What an excellent day you all had. Well done for raising all those $$$$ for Airedale rescue.
