Anyone else here from the area? Pixel and I would love to set up a play date

I hate that at the park people take their BIG dogs and put them in the SMALL dog area and Pixel gets trampled!!!!! GRRRR!! Last time he was knocked so hard and too quickly for me to save him, that we haven't been back! So I was hoping someone on here would be from Tallahassee so Pixel would have someone to play with

Satellite Beach here....a little too far unless we're in the neighborhood sometime

tonyag9 · 09-02-2009, 10:38 AM

Awww okay, thanks!

If you ARE ever in the area, drop me a line!

mblab · 09-02-2009, 10:43 AM

We're from Tallahassee!

Zoe would love to be Pixel's friend!

(In fact, you wouldn't happen by any chance to be the Mom of Pixel that I tried to do a meet-up with over Craigslist, would you?)

YAAAAY!! OMG I actually AM the very same person!! What a small world!!! I'm not sure whey that ended up totally falling through! I even met one of the mom's by chance at PetSmart and we talked about getting together but still nothing has come of it. You know, "life" seems to sometimes get in the way I guess lol

That's too funny! Yeah I still don't know why that fell through. I kept trying and I'd never get anyone to say yes or no to anything! Well, let's see if we can't make it happen for our babies to meet each other!

tonyag9 · 09-04-2009, 07:05 AM

I'm not really sure why we couldn't get it together either. I know I was in Texas for awhile during that time and then south Florida, as my daddy was in the hospital. So it was a busy time for me. I'm ready to make it happen now though!!!

mblab · 09-04-2009, 09:53 AM

I say at least the two of us get together!

I'm not going to hold my breath about the others....

ArmyWife313 · 09-05-2009, 02:33 PM

Hey all, Lily and I are in Tallahassee! She's only a 3 pounder, but we'd love to meet up!

mblab · 09-05-2009, 03:41 PM

Hey ArmyWife313!

Zoe's 5.5 pounds and she'd LOVE to meet both of you ladies and your babies! Let's try to set something up!

ArmyWife313 · 09-05-2009, 05:52 PM

We'd definitely be up for a playdate. We could even rotate houses. I'd be willing to host the first one.

Yay!

Zoe would love to have a playdate! She has no puppy friends in town. Tell us the time/place and she'll be there with bells on!

tonyag9 · 09-08-2009, 05:14 AM

Yay!!! Pixel will be there too!! He is only 4.8 pounds and it's so hard to find people with little dogs that don't make mommy nervous lol Let me know when/where (hopefully not during the day as I work full-time) and we will be there!!!

We are both so excited! lol

I am over in the panhandle area near Pensacola. A little too far for a play date, but if you ever travel west, give a shout.

I don't understand why so many big dog owners insist on using the small dog area. I have heard one explain that she wanted to make sure her dog was safe because some in the big dog area were aggressive. I felt like saying, "Try thinking about all these tiny dogs!" Hers was a huge Golden (paws as big as Ben's head!), a friendly, but much too exuberant dog to be playing with Yorkies when we were strangers.

tonyag9 · 09-08-2009, 05:44 AM

I don't get it either FlDebra!!! It drives me nuts! They always say something like "He's just a big ole' baby. He loves small dogs." Well, I'm not saying your dog is going to aggressively try to eat mine, BUT even playing NICELY your enormous hopping lab can ACCIDENTALLY break my babies neck with one false move!!! I'll definitely remember to let you know if I'm headed west and we can get together for a play date!
