Barney Goes to Blog Paws

Tripawds three legged dog community takes Barney the Purple Dinosaur to Blog Paws 2012 Social Media Conference in Salt Lake City.

Shortly after Barney arrived at the Colorado dude ranch where he’s learning the ropes from Wyatt Ray, the purple beast was whisked off to represent Tripawds at the Blog Paws 2012 Social Media Conference in Salt Lake City.

Although he didn’t seem to have too much interest in seminars about things like how to build a better blog, the Purple Dino did have an exciting encounter or two and got to be the center of attention on a few occasions.

Jerry Fan meets Barney and Wyatt at BlogPaws

Like when he met fellow blogger and animal lover Lisa Wagner from Chicago. Lisa told us how much she was touched by the PBS documentary I was featured in, “Why We Love Cats and Dogs.”

Lisa told us that my story brought tears to her eyes, and she couldn’t stop thinking about us for a long, long time. It was quite a coincidence that we happened to meet fan at Blog Paws! She was so happy to meet Wyatt Ray and Barney too!

Blog Paws was a whirlwind time for the purple beast. After two long days of seminars, banquets and networking, Barney was exhausted and ready for a quiet retreat back at the ranch.

Little did he know that Wyatt Ray had other plans for him  . . .

To be continued.

Who is that Half Pint, anyway? And what does he have against animals?

If Wyatt ever finds out, he’s likely do to him something similar to what he has done with poor FrankenBarney!

Check out Barney’s travel blog for more about his pilgrimage to the Church of Broken Toys in Slab City, USA. And stay tuned for news about the next stop on the KillBarney Tour.

Another Barney Milestone

Barney and Jerry Tour the Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream Factory in Waturbury, Vermont

While we wait for word about where Barney may be these days, here’s a memorable blast from the past – taken September, 2007.

One of the more memorable milestones from Jerry’s cross-country adventure was his visit to the Ben & Jerry’s factory in Waturbury, Vermont. Another great day when he and Barney were getting along well.
