What makes you say not? just curious.

I live here. even in the outside malls they won't let your dog into the stores. how rude! idk my there just aren't many places here to take your dog.. there are some in downtown.. but I'm sure if next years meetup is held here you guys don't want it in central downtown.. it's way too crowded..

I think one day may be too short.. some people miss each other and so on. I know I missed a few people and I had two days.. I only talked to you for about five minutes..
I think the selling/shopping hours were too long as I wanted to talk to Des and couldn't because she was so busy with customers. So maybe both days could just have a couple of hours each and then we could go on and do other things.. games.. races.. fun things we can all do and enjoy with each other and our babies

This sounds like so much fun! Of course, I would definitely have to save some money!! Florida a long way from any of the places you guys have mentioned.... I think east/west would be better.... for me to go all the way to Illinois or somewhere like that would take a week or more, because we would have to drive - me, hubby, two skin brats, one furbaby.... too much for a plane

I'm going to keep my eye on this!

mickeyb · 05-22-2007, 10:54 AM

What's wrong with Michigan?? We all agree we had a great time there,maybe if we had a better place for the show for the vendors. but we had alot of pet friendly hotels in the area.there seemed to be parks etc.in the area also.I vote for Michigan again

Me too, i'm poor and i just can't take the time, I live in Indiana, PA about an hour out of Pittsburgh! Otherwise I would be all in, and Vinnie loves car rides!!

roosmom · 05-22-2007, 11:01 AM

I live in VA and would love for it to be on the east coast somewhere- NY would be ideal! I'd really love to come- I need to meet some yorkie owners in person who are as obsessed as I am!! =)

sexiixtc · 05-22-2007, 11:03 AM

I don't mind Michigan either.. but they want a more central area so more of us can meet.. not just the east/west coast.. that way cali people don't have to drive all the way to the east and NY people don't have to drive all the way to Cali.

TammyJM · 05-22-2007, 11:46 AM

I think this sounds like a great idea. I live in Missouri and would be willing to drive around 5 hours.

I think it should be where YT is located and that is WA State.

. Washington does have alot to offer and then I could go to

Txgurl06 · 05-22-2007, 03:13 PM

okay like i said even if we did a east coast one then it couldnt be in NY because thats to far for people in texas to go and not that far for people in NY to go . i mean everyone is says all the north places and is leaving us southern people out lol!!! but i think all the middle places like ks, Nebraska, would be great places for that is about a good distance for everyone. i know Ks is 7 hours from where i live. but it wouldnt be fair to have it in NY or Tx like really north of south places. just wanted to put in my opinion!

u say that because your in washington tho. i wish it could be here in tx for my convenience but i know thats not fair for northern states.

I don't mean to upset anyone but usually when there is a 'convention', the people in the committee chooses when, where, why, and what. Those that can't make it can always make it the following years. Everyone wants it to be convenient for them but everyone can't be satisfied. I know the main goal is to make it convenient for everyone but that's 'MISSION IMPOSSIBLE IV' we're talking about here.

marcerella02 · 05-22-2007, 03:56 PM

do not fret... it will not be in a state like California or New York.. you are all right.. they just arne't convenient for everyone.. as much as i would love to go to both

it will probably be a central state...w e are working on that

sherryeaves · 05-22-2007, 04:09 PM

Is Atlanta a central state?

This sounds like it would be soooooooo much fun...
