Then there were the farm animals for adoption.

The goose? He was just representing the wildlife rehab booth.

The goats. There were also cats and ferrets but I didn't get their pictures.
Unfortunately, at noon the skies opened up and poured down rain. The fair was supposed to last until 4 but we were packing up by 12:30.

It was very disappointing that it got rained out because this is a once a year event which usually gets 5-10 adoptions for each rescue. I did hear of two little dogs who were adopted. Little dogs go quickly. The rescues are at full capacity and 6 dogs were put to sleep at the pound last week because there were no foster homes. Maybe they should think about organizing another fair in the Fall and make it a bi-annual thing.
Despite the weather, it was an adventure and I'm glad I went. I hope I will still be fostering dogs next year so I can participate again.

Too bad about the rain.
How many llamas did you bring home?
Ha, I don't need a llama because I don't have a herd of sheep. I hear they are excellent guard "dogs". I even saw some in Oregon standing guard over their sheep. I did want one of those horses though. Good thing it wouldn't fit in the back of my pickup.
