Alabama Yorkie Meet-up! I posted the thread where it should go but even I rarely go to the regional sub forums so wanted to link it here ;) http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sou...ml#post4164303 |
How about some place in the middle? Anybody know of a town that has a nice dog park with shade? :D |
I love the Hunstville dog park, near the place with the Goldfish. I cant remember the name but I used to go there all the time. |
Huntsville would be great except I don't think any of us live that far North. I think the furthest is Russellville...? If we end up not being able to find a perfect dog park, I have a huge backyard. Just sayin' :D |
Ha! I honestly don't know a "good" dog park in Alabama! I'm just north of Birmingham and any YTer is welcome at my house too. :) |
When is a good time for you guys? I was thinking around the last weekend of April, perhaps? |

Im not an Alabama-er anymore.:p |
I think the last weekend ill be in NJ but the weekend before that works. :) |
Hmmm, Mandie has surgery on the 11th. The weekend before that is the 20th, but I would think she should be healed by then. It is just dental surgery. You think? |

Oh yeah Terri. Dentals are nothing compared to spays! And she's a youngin'! I think, with little dogs they are better but tend to drag it out so they can be spoiled. |
Sigh...I am jealous that I don't live in Alabama!!!!!! :) However....I did see what you wrote on my blizzard thread Terri...next year!!! |

We are excited about this! The only days I know we can't do is April 10 - 15. Mom will be in DC and I want her to come along with me and bring Mollie. ;) |
Idk of any good dog parks either. We are in Russellville but can easily drive to Birmingham or wherever. ;) |
We have a lot of members from Dothan as well. Thanks Terri! I hope, I didn't pressure you. ;) I want to help out in whatever way I can but knew it would take a few of us to get things started. |

Aymee, definitely bring Mollie and even your mom :) I just got notice that my Cystic Fibrosis walk in April 27th. So, April 20th is still good for me. I hope everyone can make it. Here is what I propose: April 20th at 1pm? If everyone is okay with that, then we'll break down some possible locations. I'll do some research or, again, we could all meet at my house. I can take Shelby-Dale to his Grandma's and it will just be the littles. I have a really big fenced in back yard. |
Sounds good to me. |
Sounds fabulous! |
I thought I already posted, but it didn't show up. I would love to come to a meet up with all the sweet home alabama folks! :) |

My daughter and I went to the park area at the Shakespeare.....??? in Montgomery. I was a very nice area. I don't know if they allow dogs or not. If interested I can find out the name and if they allow dogs. |

Jilleen, it's the Alabama Shakespeare Festival. I don't think they allow dogs, but if you want to look into it and let us know, that would be great. It is a beautiful area over there. I hope all our other Alabama peeps see this and come :) |
I hope you don't mind me posting, but since I have been to a lot of meet ups, I would like to give you a few ideas. IMHO, if you can meet at someones home with a fenced in back yard that is your best option. Man. Mom if you held it would the dogs be able to go inside, ie it could rain. I have been to a lot of meetups and most have been at homes, the females that are not fully house broken must wear diapers and all the males must wear belly bands when indoors. We all bring a dish to pass and a new gift worth around 10.00 to pass around like a white elephant. Or we chip in and the hostess gets something like a party sub and snacks or pizza or makes chili. We also try to play a few games to break the ice, like dog breed scramble, tell what you dog would be like in High School or something like that. If we have a theme like Easter, or Valentines Day a game based on that. wish I lived in AL |
Those are great ideas! Yes, if we have it at my house, I have a huge fenced yard AND plenty of room in my house if we need to come inside. I have plenty of spaces to park and if needed - a covered carport. Those games sound like fun. Will have to look into that more. Thanks, Donna! |
