My life as a mascot

So on Saturday my mom had a pet parade and fundraiser for her animal non-profit, Paw Pals. My brother and I went to Quincy to help out. Teddy drove a truck in the parade and I wore a beagle costume--like the kind a team mascot wears. The thing was huge, hot, and heavy--it was a lot of work to wear! Not only did I walk in the parade, but I also participated in the obedience training--my mother made me sit, stay, and even lay down on the ground!
The town paper covered the event and the photographer took lots of pictures of me posing with little kids. Attached is a link to the picture that actually made it into the paper. The caption was something like "shepherd investigates Uno, the Paw Pals mascot."

This is my best picture ever.
