Littlelady lives in Indiana, she hasn't been on line since the 10th. I know some of the ladies on here know who i'm talking about, hopefully they'll see this and possibly have some info. I hope she is ok.

The meetup was fun, it was a beautiful day!! We hope to have another meetup in a few months, maybe when it's not so hot outside.

Thanx~! I'll keep watching for the next meet & greet~

Hi Ladies,

How have you and your families all been? How are the Fur babies doing? Are any of you adding to your family, if so where are you getting the pup from and when will they get to join your family?I wish I was getting another one, but I have to wait a bit for another girl. My husband has already said we can have at least 2 more! Names are picked out already:rolleyes:

We have been very busy arround our house. I am ready for the summer and so are my 4 boy's. I just wish we would start getting hotter day's, my kids want in the pool! Axl and Yumi Yasha just had their first birthday's May 29 and May 30. We got them new toy's and I made them up a nice home cooked dinner.

Ohio Bike week is also going on in my town right now and Axl and Yumi are OK with the noise from the bikes but Jeter is very scared so I had to stop his daily walk for now.

Anyone have any news to share ?

Hi, from Southern Indiana
 

Just found this awesome site while surfing the net this morning. I am in Mitchell, Indiana which is a couple hours from Cincinnatti and a little over an hour from both Indy and Louisville, KY.

I would love to be included in your next "playdate". Our baby, Miley just loves to play!

Hello, everyone. I am rather new to Yorkie Talk, and it appears you have a great group in the Great Lakes area.

I am the proud momma of one very spoiled yorkie, Isabelle, aka Izzie. I don't have pics posted yet, but I'm working on it.

I've never attended a meet-up, but the sound like great fun. I am located in Central Indiana and would be interested in attending a futre meet-up event.

Hi and welcome to this thread, Izziesmomma. Glad to hear you would be interested in attending a future meet-up. :) They are really fun!

TeddE, my 5 yo yorkie and SammE (who wants to be a yorkie) stopping by to say hello to everyone today.
They had their hw blood work and da2pp shots yesterday. All is well except for SammE, he had a reaction, poor guy.
WELCOME TO ALL NEWBIES!!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

I have been the organizer of the Cincinnati Yorkiemeetup group. com (www.meetup .com /Cincinnati / Yorkies . I also post all my information about meetups on Yorkietalk for Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky regionals area. Believe it or not there is a monthly fee to be an organizer of a meetup group.

I did not mind a startup fee and continuing it for a while, but I am going to have to drop out as the organizer very soon after I get everybody's email written down (maybe by the end of the month)so I can email people without paying for it.

I have had 3 Yorkiemeetups in the past 3 years in the Summer. Different months and Saturdays and Sundays once at my house and the past two have been a park near my house in Deer Park. The reason of quitting meetup.com is not just about the money. I have spent a lot of time trying to get a big meetup going also $$$. I had my 3rd and probably last meetup today. My Husband and I always donate the KFC ( which was my idea and wishs) and everyone brings a dish etc etc and living so close I get there early bring extra chairs, paper cups , napkins , pop etc and can go get anything we need very easily. I am not faulting anyone but the last 3 years the attendance of my meetups has gone from 15 to 10 and the 3rd one today only 1 person showed up., I also realize there are last minute cancellation because of sick dogs or kids etc and that is to be expected. . I realize everyone can not always attend every meetups that come up. But for just one person to be there today with her Yorkie was very embarrasing to me. She is also a Yorkietalk member and lives in Northern Ky about 30 min for me. My Husband and I enjoyed meeting this person and her Yorkie and we all had a great time and I think our meeting will develop into a real friendship and it will be nice to have a "Yorkie " friend so close to me to do things with. That was the main reason I started the meetup group just to meet other Yorkie owners to do things with and have things in common get advice from etc.

I have friends that live outside the Detroit area and there is a big meetup group of Yorkie owners who actually ATTEND the meet ups (over 30 people) and my Husaband and I are going to Michigan AGAIN this year for the Yorkiemeet up on the Sunday of Labor Day weekend near Detroit at a dear friend of mine house who has three Yorkies. We are fortunate enough to be able to stay with her this year again and there will be overy 30 people there with their Yorkies Yorkie (s) and some Husbands. My Husband loves the meet ups and it will be nice to see our friends again and meet new ones.I would pay for a hotel room if needed !!!!

I am writting today not to complain but to try to find a SOLUTION to have the meetups grow in number with each one and to get help organizing them. I am just looking for suggestions...

If someone could plan a meet up that was centrally located in the Tri State area and really get support and a good attendence growing with each meetup that would be wonderful . I would plan to be there, help and give $$ if needed to help the hosts. But for now, I am closing this letter with tears because after almost 3 months of plannning ,emailing etc and getting the spot at a very nice park with a shelter and a bathroom in Cincinnati near my house (on the East side of Cincincinnati ) and to only have one person show up was a big let down for me and my Husband.

First of all let me say how sorry I am that happened to you.
I recently started a tiny dog monthly meet up in my area and would be heartbroken if noone showed.I know the planning and good intentions that goes into it .Remember why you started to do this for the dogs .
I started a free web site so i dont pay anything and
perhaps advertise on craigslist so the cost is cut down.
Good luck we need more kind people like you .

I am so sorry that more people did not attend.... But let me tell you, Piccolo and I had such a grand time and we very much appreciate all you time and effort you put into such a lovely party. Thank you so much for all your hard work and effort. It was great meeting you and your DH today. You are the greatest!

Janie,

I'm so sorry that you didn't have a good turn out, I wish we could have been there!
We really enjoyed the meet-up that you put together last year and that was such a nice turn-out and I know you put alot into the gatherings!
Hopefully I will be able to join in again soon!

Sorry to hear the news
 

I've only been a member here since 2008. Then I didn't even know that there were Yorkie meetups. I only recently saw it posted since I hardly come here. It's a lot for one person to do and if no one else pitches in to help, it wouldn't be any fun. I have a lot going on with an Estate and other things, so my time isn't available to come to these long drives from Louisville. Then again, I hardly ever drive on the highways. I would have to find an alternate route which would double in the driving time to get anywhere.

Well I got laid off today....got a good severance but still out of a job, along with 8 other people.

Sorry to hear this Ashley! Hopefully the severance will give you a little cushion for awhile until you find something else.

Oh Ashley, what horrible news. I am so sorry. Hope you will be able to find one soon. Glad to hear they gave a severance, though, and you deserve it.

yeah i'll be fine, my severance is pretty good. I'm getting 8 weeks pay (more on each check than I was getting lol) and my benefits for that long. I also get unemployment so no worries here. It's a blessing in disguise though, I wasn't that happy there, 3 years of stress has now been lifted. I'll find something else. I want to change the field I work in....maybe event planning, I love doing that so we'll see!! I need all the prayers I can get to help find the perfect job.

In the mean time Billy let me sign up for the GE!! I hope some of you will be able to get in it too!! How awesome would it be to get one of you!! Sign ups end in like a week so go sign up!! :)

Ashley,

I'm sorry to hear that you lost your job! I lost mine back at the end of May after 11 years! I wish you the best of luck on your new career path!
It's tough out there, but we just have to stay positive!!
