Just an idea What do you think of organizing a YT convention? Maybe next year, which would give people a long time to prepare ($, time off, etc) I've met so many wonderful people on here and would love to meet them in person. Thoughts? |
That's a great idea!! I'd try to go if I could. |
I was actually thinking this also...although it is hard because there are so many of us from different places...and I rarely get vacation..lol., but maybe if we could make it like a weekend picnic thing..smack in the middle of the US, we could probably get a deal on hotel rate (like a convention)..and we could have games and stuff for the dogs..it sounds like fun..anyone else?? |
Sounds good,, but where would we have it?? |
THE place has to allow dogs,, cause there would be TONS!! :D |
Awesome idea!! I would love that - my hubby and I would definitely come! |
Convention I am already setting one up for San Francisco, and Bella Bear was going to set one up for LA. It's the thread called " Yorkie Convention in California" You guys are all on east coast but if you can come to ours, we'd love it! |
OK my mom said we will see where the majority wants it. if there isn't a majority then it will be in seattly in honor of fasteddie. she also said she's willing to organize it but everyone has to input. okay never mind this post at all my mom just put what she ment |
I think we should do reserch as far as dog parks..maybe specializing in small breeds..to see good locations as a start..what do you guys think??? |
Megan, I said everyone COULD have in put, not that they have to! I just want to get everyone's ideas. The CA one sounds fun, too! |
since everyone is from all over.. why not do like a central location?? |
Great idea! Maybe we could have it at some dog friendly place our in the country! A ranch or lodge or something! |
Check out www.pettravel.com Maybe we can find a pet friendly ranch or lodge to host our get together. |
yeah that would be a good idea!! |
Florida sounds really nice..."Florida is often described as the Sunshine State but it should also be known as the Pet Friendly State. From Key West, probably the pet friendliest city in the World to the pet friendly beaches of the Atlantic and the Gulf to the wonders of Orlando you will find pet friendly accommodations abound. Since outdoor dining is a part of Florida you will find thousands of restaurants and bars where your pet will be welcome on the patio" |

haha i go to FL all the time! it is very pretty! |
I have been there a couple of times BUT never with Maximus...I just happened to see that it was soo pet friendly when going through various states... |
Fabulous Idea I think this idea is great we would be there for sure i would like to see it in a more centralized location like maybe chicago or something. Go figure being from oklahoma i dont like huge cities give me miles and miles of land and i am happy. |

I would love the florida thing since I live here. |
I think its a great idea, but I honestly probably wouldn't go unless it were in driving distance (like 3 hours or less). You guys should come to me :) The convention capitol of the world... Anyway, it needs to be close(like a short cab ride distance) to an airport and in a place that has public transportation for sure. Just thinking logically :) |
Sounds like a great idea :aimeeyork Sound like a great dog lovers idea to me. A central location would be good. chloegyrl (Nancy) in Michigan :lovewings |
That sounds wonderful!!! |
Sounds great to me! I vote for Florida! |
I vote for Chicago because it is centrally located between all of us. It also has many places and things to do for everyone. If it were in chicago i would be more than willing to open my home to some YT members to stay. I have more than enough room and very well socialized dogs. |
I would love ONE big convention, but I think a lot of smaller regional ones would work too. We could do them all on the same day and share pics. We could do the smaller ones in our individual areas first and then the BIG one later next year so we have time to plan and all. I would be willing to travel for the BIG convention and I would go wherever the "planners" decide is the best location. I really hope this happens! |
That sounds like a lot of fun, but I don't know if I would be able to go. I wish I could though! If it was near Naples, Florida in November 2006 I could go. LOL! That's where and when I am going to FL! Or if it was anywhere near Cleveland, Ohio. He he he! :D |
That would be so much fun! I'd go. I know that they have one on my Sugar Glider board every year. They get a few hotels and everyone stays around the same spot. They also have a few "speakers" and "boutiques" (people with online stores set up and sell a little), of course food, and LOTS of hanging out talking. I think if you made it in a year and really organized it and got a good place for all of us to stay we could save up money and really do it. SOUNDS LIKE FUN! I kind of vote Chicago too. It seemes really central. :D |
I would definately go if it was in Chicago! I looooooovvvvveee Chicago and so does my family. It would be a great excuse to go back! |
