a blog about being a lorax to the world. a lorax is anyone/anything that stands as an advocate. the lorax is literally a smallish, brownish creature from Dr. Seuss's The Lorax. He "speaks for the trees, for the trees have no tongues". the ending quote always resonates with my humanitarian efforts, "unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot; nothing's going to get better. its not."

Puptastic Pet Palooza
charlotte's Humane Society held their annual Pet Palooza a couple weeks ago in independence park. i have very rarely seen so many well-behaved dogs at once (besides when i worked at a doggy day care). the dogs were adorable and all the vendors and booths had some amazing products and games to watch. the puppy kissing booth was one of my favorites!! the event started off with a 5k run (which inspired me to begin participating in my own 5k's) and immediately following the race was a 1k doggy walk which allowed dog owners to walk together with their adorable canine friends for 1k. the rest of the morning was filled with dogs playing in the pools and sniffing out all the booths and vendors. the Fido Fashion show was a great event to watch with all the fashionable fido's being adopted alumni from the Humane Society. there were some stylin' dogs walking around. it was a great way to spend a saturday morning!!
