Piercing Ken Thoughts: I believe I mentioned when I did this kind of event announcement before that I am much more of a cat person than a dog one despite not having one in a few years. Now before I continue along let me stress that I have sourced the press copy up above from the AKC site directly for you to consume and determine if such a convention is suitable for you and the family. I think it might be because dogs are so awesome and there are so many wonderful breeds of them. Though there is quite a bit of time before I will need to look into this one, I do think I will try to attend and parse some of the time between that and the last days of the New York Boat Show which I always enjoy. I have to laugh at the timing of their alert because once again I am sorting through all of the madness that was found at the most recent New York Comic Con and when that’s done I will be preparing for the upcoming Anime NYC convention. Those two are very popular items on my PiercingMetal website and hey if you have any interest in seeing my findings just click the hyperlinked text in the preceding sentence. Wrapping this one up I do wonder if any of you had attended this year’s happening back in January or if you missed it would you be looking to take the family and pet all of the dogs possible. Chime in down below and I will see you next time with more stuff. Thanks for reading.
