Fall and winter pet events page updated!

Central Florida pet events

Once again I was a few days late, but I have updated the pet events page to reflect all the pet events going on in the central Florida area for the rest of the year.

Once fall is here and it cools off there is a big surge in pet events going on. You can find many pet Halloween costume contest going on, especially the big one at Winter Park which is held each year.

Right at the moment I have no Halloween events in my page because nobody has announced any yet. But I’m sure there will be some soon. Once I know when the Winter Park Halloween pet costume contest will be I will post it.

Pet events for August,,, not much

August pet events

If you happen to check out the pet events page for August, you’ll notice there is not much there. In fact at the time I write this there is only one event for the month.

That’s because there really is not much of anything going on during the hot month of August. It’s just too hot to take your pet out to any events, put costumes on them or anything else.

The pet events will pick up again in the fall, when some of the most popular events take place. I just did not want you to think I forgot to update the events page for August. I did not, there just are none!

Orlando pet events for May to August now up!

Orlando area pet events

I wanted to let you all know that the Orlando pet events page has been updated to show the May to August 2012 pet events! I break it up into quarterly sections, otherwise it gets way too long.

I try to have the most complete Orlando area pet events page around. I don’t show all events as every pet place has a few special things they do each week or month.

But I try to include all big events, like the Doggy Derby, pet walks and stuff like that. May seems to have a nice amount of pet events going on, so make sure you check it out.

Guest writers wanted for pet articles, events, services!

Be a guest pet writer on Orlando Pet Services!

Spring is just about here, it’s getting hotter and summertime fun is starting to happen! I juggle a lot of different websites, in fact it’s now up to around 3 dozen of them I own and operate!

Because of that I wanted to offer anyone in the Orlando area a chance to become a guest writer here on Orlando Pet Services. In fact I’ll be happy to accept several. So just what would, or could you write about?

Just about anything that has to do with pets. If your a Vet you could start a pet healthcare section or series of articles on it. If you run a pet services store or site you could write about what you do.

New 2012 pet events page done!

2012 Orlando pet events page done

Hey everyone, hope you had a great Christmas and doing well. I’ve been taking a few days off but now I’m getting back to work. So I wanted to let you all know I’ve started the new 2012 pet events in the event page!

I like to think that I have the most complete Orlando area pet events page around. Because of that the page gets quite long if I have too many months on it.

So from now on I’m making only the current 4 months on the page. Which means there will be a total of 4 different pet events pages made for each year. I will try to have a link to the next 4 months after this quarter is up as a link before this current 4 months are up.

Pet Santa pictures, fund raisers and more this month at Pookie’s!

Many pet events going on at Pookie's this month

During the fall and winter months there are lots of pet events going on around Orlando. Pookie’s pet nutrition in Winter Park always has a lot going on, and this month of Dec. they have even more than normal.

So much in fact that I thought I would put them all in a post here instead of my pet events page, although I will try to get some in there too. Having your pets picture taken with Santa is always popular and there will be lots of days to have that done this month at Pookie’s.

There will be several days you can get your pet picture with Santa done, plus several different pet benefit days that help different local pet rescue groups. So below is a list of what’s going on at Pookie’s this month.

The event will be held Oct. 30th in front of The Doggie Door, 329 N. Park Ave., downtown Winter Park. That’s on the corner of Garfield and Park Avenue. Thousands of people come each year to see this cool pet event.

However there are lots of small pet events in the Orlando, Florida area that I only know about a week or two in advance. Since I just heard about a couple I thought I’d throw these out there fast to give you a heads up!

The guy behind Orlando Pet Services

Bill, the guy behind Orlando Pet Services

I’ve been getting out to the local pet events these days and meeting more and more of the people around here. I’m starting to get to know some of the great folks who run all the pet services and shops in the Orlando area.

Also more people seem to be starting to know about my site here, Orlando Pet Services. So, I thought maybe I should give you all a little more information about just who the heck I am, the guy behind the site!

My name is Bill Manning, and I’m originally from Vermont. I moved down here to Orlando about 20 or so years ago all by myself. I hate the cold and love the nice weather down here.

Upcoming Orlando area pet events page now open!

Upcoming central Florida pet events

Alrighty everyone, I’ve been working my butt off trying to get my Orlando area pet events page done, and now it’s finally open! Check it out in the top menu bar above, or go here for the Orlando pet events page.

Now, because I just opened it, there are only October to December 2010 events on it. I will start putting 2011 pet events in it in a few weeks. It’s hard to find a full pet event page that covers all the upcoming pet events in the Orlando and central Florida area.

I’ve seen a few, but they only have events they are doing themselves, or just about a few sponsored pet events. I want to have every type of pet event in my new page here.
