The Great American Pet Expo at Navy Pier

We love our pets here at Chicagoist and so we're excited that the Great American Pet Expo is coming to Navy Pier November 14th and 15th. The Expo will feature demonstrations and presentations on products and services for pet owners including: Pet foods and treats, beds, art, pet photographers, leashes for Fido and Fluffy, coats for your dog, etc. We may have heard some rumors about pet dancing. Yes. We saw that episode of King of the Hill, too.

We admit to taking a few pictures here and there of our monsters. If you do the same, you can enter the pet photography contest to win free tickets to the Expo. We decided to compile some of our favorite staff pet photos. Enjoy!

I think the next happy hour needs to be BYOP (Bring Your Own Pet).

I brought Rocco to the last one since it was just down the street and we were on the patio. :)

Betty looks like a little rascal.

Oh you don't know the half of it ... I'm pretty sure she has opposable thumbs she's hiding from me.

oh they are all so cute ... but what kind of dog is Franklin? he looks like a lot o' fun to have around..

Actually, I don't really know; he was a rescue puppy and they weren't really sure. Best guess is a rottweiler/shepherd mix. And he's a handful but definitely a dog with a sunny disposition, all smiles and fun. not a very good intern, though. makes a horrible pot of coffee and his copy editing skills leave much to be desired...

Maybe you should hire Betty as his personal assistant...she may inspire him to clean up his act!!!!

More like Betty would corrupt Franklin... "and this is how you open the fridge..."

buster looks like he demands the center of attention. poor lil sasha.

Yes! No question of which is the alpha cat, right? This photo is basically a summation of their relationship. As relationships go...it's pretty co-dependent and toxic.

Gah! I love Pickle the Kitten. So much attitude in one picture.

Also, I have a cat named Franklin. If my cat married Marcus' dog...well, that would just be weird.

Yup, that expression pretty much sums Pickle the kitten right up.

Stella is such a handsome, yet demure looking regal lady.
