I just now found this thread thanks to FL Tink. I absolutely love the Ft. Desoto dog beach. I've taken the boys there twice and am going again next weekend. lol. It's such a clean beach considering it's a dog beach w/ a lot of larger dogs. But all the dogs that go there seem to be very well behaved. The park/paw playground part isn't the best dog park....it's kind of a bit unkept. lol. But they do have a very large wash area that's good for hosing them off to get all the sand out of their hair after the beach.

Also, we can bring a grill (if anyone has a mini one) and we could grill up hot dogs or burgers or something. They have a lot of grassy areas under trees that people often bbq in. Also, don't know if anyone mentioned it before, but if you have unbrellas or x-pens, you sould definately bring them. Oh, and plenty of towels! The sand gets so hot that we had to carry the boys to the water. lol. And the beach unbrellas were a definate need....we stayed at the beach for hours last time, since the unbrella took off some of the heat.

Also, once we get a an approximate number of people that are coming, we can also see if there is a place around there where we can eat afterwards w/ our furbabies. I know of a nice pizza/italian place that's not too far away....but they only have a few tables outside.

I'm a big planner, so let me know if you need any help! Can't wait to meet you all!

thanks for the suggestions on what to bring! i think the bbq idea is fantastic.. i need to get an umbrella!
