April’s Mutt of the Month: Mow Mow

When Christy Thompson signed up for Equip Exposition 2024, she didn’t have any intention of adopting a dog at the 6th Annual Mulligan’s Mutt Madness event. “My husband was dead set on not needing another dog yet, as we had just lost our dog that we had for 17 years. But we fell in love with her as soon as we saw her, and he gave in.”

They named their new pooch Mow Mow, “Because I call her the mower show dog,” Christy explains.

Mow Mow is doing great in her new home and gets along well with the Thompsons’ older dog, Maverick. “She has become his shadow!” laughs Christy. “She is such a joy to us, and she is keeping Maverick company and young.”

Christy reports that Mow Mow sleeps with them every night and has the zoomies every day. “We have a two-acre lot, and she loves to run!” (Now, that’s what we call a lucky dog!)

Mow Mow is just one of the 12 pups who found their forever homes at Mutt Madness 2024. The popular event – hosted in partnership with Kentucky Humane Society – will once again be held at Equip Expo 2025 in October.
