Findlay Dog Park ~ Sunday, July 3rd

[ramanth]

Phred mentioned in Kia's Birthday thread:


Point to Note:

We have "our" Pavilion #7 at Findlay reserved for the weekend (Sunday)
after Kia's Party - the Sunday (July 3rd) of the 4th of July weekend ...

Are there going to be enough folks who will come to both events??
The Orion Dog Park is a BEAUTIFUL Place -
complete with a great *Swimmin Hole* for the Dawggies!!

IF we need to choose only one event -
let's go to Michigan and cancel the July 3rd Gathurin at Findlay.

Andy and I will be in Columbus, OH for my aunt's birthday party on July 2nd. If Kia can go, then we will be able to stop by at Findlay on the way home.

If Kia can't go, either we won't be able to make it, or other arrangements for Kia would have to be made. (Maybe someone could "dog-sit" her and bring her out to Findlay on Sunday? )

I'm calling my aunt and uncle today.

[anna_66]

Looks like we were thinking along the same lines this morning Kimmy:D

[4 Dog Mother]

I will probably post this on all the post about the Findlay area gatherings. Since the pavilion is already reserved, why doesn't anyone who wants to come, come ahead. I will be there if others are since we will be in town that weekend. It would be nice to know who is coming though. So please let me know.

I haven't heard anyone talk about it much so I was beginning to wonder.

I see from Phred's message in the Kia's Bday thread that
the pavillion is reserved but then again this was said...

"If we need to choose only one event -
let's go to Michigan and cancel the July 3rd Gathurin at Findlay."

Does this mean that most that usually come (to Findlay)are
going to go to Michigan instead?
I mean if that's what we're going to do I just think everyone needs to know.

I think his message was heavy on the IF...
as in if there aren't many people that can make it July 3rd, then we can cancel the reservation.

But if enough people CAN make it (to Findlay) on July 3rd,
then we can keep the reservation and party both weekends. :)

I did put my request in for the 3rd at work.

If the Findlay thing isn't going to happen,
I would like to know so I can make other plans. [/B]


Phred sez:

I'll see if I can edit this one and add a poll to it. I like that your post had that. :)

[ramanth]

At the moment we are a GO for July 3rd. I just got off the phone with my Uncle Kevin and he said Kia is more than welcome to come. For those that don't want to stay at motels overnight, they can camp in Uncle Kevin's backyard. :)

[Cinder & Smoke]

Firstly:
If you haven't seen it ~ Go Read your *Invitation* to
Kia & Kimmy's Birfday Bash + Kim & Andy's Engagement Partee at >>>

Kia's Birthday Party - What day... (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=81704)

Kia's Party will be on Sunday, JUNE 26.

The REST of what I said has been >MOVED< to the
current "end" of this thread = June 29th ...

[Cincy'sMom]

Kimmy- if things fall through with family, I would would bet my pups wouldn't be too upset about a slumber party!

[ramanth]

Thanks Amy! :D

[Cinder & Smoke]

:cool:

There's room for more to attend!!

;)

[shais_mom]

Phred so subtly mentioned on the phone that I hadn't replied here so here I am replying..
Keegan and I will be there....
:)

[Cinder & Smoke]

Well ... you hadn't!

:p

:D

[pitc9]

Thanks Phred for the PM!:D
I haven't been on much because my computer at home is useless it's so slow.. plus I can't post pictures, something's wrong with my video card or something:mad: and all of my pictures turn fuzzy when I upload them :(

I will have to check into a few things before I say yes to the 3rd.
The Mr. & I are going to be at his Aunts house later in the day in Avon Lake, which is 1 hour and 15mins West of me... so I'd be heading in the right direction. But I have to talk to Rick's Aunt and see if it would be okay to bring Sierra to her house after I came to the park with you guys.
Buddy will NOT be traveling with us, my poor baby boy is so deathly terrified of fireworks that I have to keep him on tranquillizers around the 4th every year, and we will be watching fireworks that night in Avon Lake (Sierra has no problems with Fireworks).
So I'd also have to find someone to stop at my house to give Buddy another pill or two at least an hour before dusk.

I'd love to see all of you guys, it's been quite a long time since my first visit to the park.

~:D

[Cincy'sMom]

Hpe it works out for you tomake it, Ang!!

[shais_mom]

Cinder Sez:
Hey Gang ~ Pleeze don't furget da Dawggie *TREETz*!!

:D

[Cinder & Smoke]

The Pavilion IS already reserved for
SUNDAY, JULY 3rd - the "middle day" in the 3-day 4th of July weekend.

We decided to "try" the 4th of July weekend this year because it
is a another 3-day holiday - and they don't happen every year!

The Thought being that some of the "more distant" Pet Talkers
might come if they didn't have to work the day after the event.

There are a LOT of PTers who live in Ohio that have never attended
a "Findlay Gathurin" - July 3rd is a great time to Start Commin!

So far - we've heard from These Folks who ARE coming >>>

Diana and the Multi-Dawg Gang
Robin & Tori
Cinder, Smokey, & Bowser WILL drag da Bus Driver over ...
Kia, Kimmy & Andy (Kia got *invited* to sleep over in Columbus!)
Staci & Keegan (any Kuzinz ??)
Amy, Ralph & the Toledo Pups
Anna & the Girls ~ (Mark & Bon) ??
Carrie & Gabbie

We NEED to hear from some of the Rest of the Gang ... ???

Jennifer & the Husky Crowd
Christy & Brian
MoosMom
Clara & Leo
Angie & Sierra (and the Mister??)

and all the other OHIO PTers ???


Only firm "NO" is Cyber-Sibes - another event prevents them from attending :(

Probably Nots from:
Lizbud & the Pups

So PLEASE - Jump in here and let us know if YOU & the FurKids
can & will come to Findlay on Sunday, July 3rd ...
Guaranteed we'll have **PHUNN**! :D

PS: Weather Guyz promise a *NICE* Day!!

[Cincy'sMom]

We are planning on coming, but we won't be able to stay late. We are supposed to be at Ralph's mom's for dinner, so we may be leaving Findlay by 3 or 4....

[ramanth]

Seeing as we'll be coming from relatives house and not from home, Andy and I won't have a dish to pass. However, is there anything anyone can think of that we could grab from a store on the way over?

I could grab a can of beans and toss them in a bowl. :)

[lizbud]

Just a short note to say that me & the pups will not be coming
for the July 4th pitch in.:( We'll be hanging out at home in the
A/C. This oppressive heat (mid 90's) , humidity, & poor air quality
has me huffin & puffin. The dogs don't seem to care much for the heat either, mostly just lay around inside the house.

Phred, if you need me to send some $ to offset reserving the
site, just send me a pm. Be glad to help out. Pray for some
cooler weather.:)

[Cinder & Smoke]

You should come then -
gonna kind of mild & mellow in the Weather Department >>>

Saturday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 57.

Sunday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 83.

Sunday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 62.

[gabbiegirl]

Holy cow.

If it hadn't been for Phred emailing me....I would have completely forgot all about this weekend.:(

The silly part is, I have been telling everyone else about it for the past several weeks. I guess I needed to tell myself. :p either that or actually go online sometime.

I will be there sometime in the early afternoon. I haven't thought of what to bring though...... hmmm??...I'll think of something.

:rolleyes:

I keep furgettin ~

She's *BLONDE*

now ... Who Else needs "help" rememberin about Sunday??

:p

:D

[Kfamr]

Wish we could be there. :(
Don't have enough money to make a trip up this summer. Vet bills up the waaahoooooo.

[NoahsMommy]

Oh my goodness, Phred! I love your list!! I'm almost in tears laughing at all the fun stuff you're bringing! ;)

Hope you all have lots of fun....and that the weather is nice for you.

Hugs,
Kelly :)

[gini]

Your plans sound so much fun - all the good food - place for the pups to run and play.

I always feel terrible that I have to tell people no pets at my BBQ - but even having my neighbor's beautiful goldens sends Rascal, Annie and Emma into fits.

Have a great time you guys. One of these days it would really be fun or is that phun? to be there and meet you all.

[ramanth]

Andy, Kia, and I won't be able to stay late either. Andy and I are meeting up with Jason in Toledo, Sunday evening.

I think we'll take off when Amy and Ralph do. :)

[pitc9]

I am officially on the "not coming" list.:(

My hubby and I are going to be driving with his parents, so no room for Sierra.

But I think the most important thing is that Buddy would feel more at ease with Sierra at home with him. Rather than leaving him home alone terrified of fireworks, even on tranquillizers he still paces, and is very very afraid.
He finds great comfort in his sissy Sierra.

I tell ya... one of these days, I'm going to make it there and surprise all of you (as long as someone recognizes me:o )
I'm already looking forward to seeing your pictures!

I hope you all have a WONDERFUL 4th of July!!!:D

[shais_mom]

It's ok Angie!!
It's a big holiday and you deserve to spend time with your hubby! :)
There are others that will be soon! :)
Will miss seeing you again of course!!!

Take care and have a safe holiday!

[Cinder & Smoke]

Sunday:
Sunny, with a high near 86.

We're gonna do a Sleep-Over at the Super-8 Rent-a-Bed ...

Forgot to add - my sincere apologies to Miss Katie! I got a pic of her but I didn't get to love on her! :( my bad!!!

kisses to her thru cyberspace!

[anna_66]

We got home around 6:15 or so.

It really was a nice day, a little warm but nice. Just mostly the regulars there today.

Of course as usual we had good food (thanks to Carl:D)!

Bad boy Bon doesn't get to go into the park anymore since his performance last time (looks as if he'll never get to go into the park:() but we did get to do a few laps around it. Him and daddy pretty much stayed up at the pavillion the whole time so we left a little earlier than usual.
Bon & Mark did have some company today though, Robin's husband Alden came with Katie! So they all kinda hung out together and took some walks. They were both so good neither one of them cried or barked to go have fun with the other dogs or people (I'm talking dogs and hubbies:p).

Great pics, Anna and Staci! As the others said, we had a great time - great food, great friends, great dogs! Jasmine had a great time meeting all the doggies.

We had a good time today and I enjoyed seeing my Pet Talk friends! Alden and Katie came with us this time and even though Katie didn't get to hang out in the dog park off leash she didn't seem to mind too much. She seemed quite content to just be there and hang out with her daddy;).

Staci, Katie says thanks for thinking about her and she is sending tailwags and sloppy kisses your way;).

Picture time!

I love this picture of Cincy. Isn't she cute. Her face looks so puppyish!

:)

[shais_mom]

yupper that's Big Boy Bon who turns ONE tomorrow!

[Cincy'sMom]

Sorry I didn't get any pictures up tonight!!! I left early (just after 3pm) went straight to my in-laws from the park. I'll try to get pictures of both up tomorrow!!

Great pictures, everyone else! Sorry we missed you Kimmy, Andy and Kia!!!

[Cinder & Smoke]

and TIURD!! ;)

Slight change in plans -
since all the Findlay Gang either had to work :( .
deliver furniture :cool: ,
or entertain Fambily :) tomorrow ...
We decided to just drive back home and not *Rent-a-Bed* ...

Till we drove past the Gathering Crowd up on the Findlay Reservoir ...
:confused: - WHUT'Z goin on??

Musta been 75 Folks in lawn chairs scattered along the east side
of the Reservoir ... we drove up and asked "What'cha DOIN?"

"FIREWORKS at 10:00 - Look GOOD from up here!"

:cool:

We drove back down and parked ...
"Only" an hour & a half to *kill* before Show Tyme!

By 9:45 there must have been 500+ up there with us!
Parking lot was Past Full and folks were parking along the roads -
TWO Park Rangers were doing their best to direct traffic and
allowing cars to park almost ANYwhere except ON the paved roads.

The Fireworks were worth the wait!
Not only saw the main Findlay Show - but there were two other
shows a little further south that were visible!

The *BOOMERS* were distant enough the FurKids didn't
seem too concerned -
Cinder & SmokeMutt seemed to *watch* ...
Bowz alternated between *sound asleep* and *WIDE-Eyed*!

After the Show - we just sat and enjoyed the
*stampede* down the Reservoir and the resultant traffic jam!
Then a slow stroll back to the Bus and an easy drive out to the highway.

The Furry Co-Pilots were their usual Helpful Selves on the return trip ~
SOUND ASLEEP *crashed* on the back seat! :rolleyes:
Cinder *came to* when we turned onto our road;
Smoke never picked his head up off the seat till we turned into the DRIVE;
and poor Bowser - he would have GLADLY slept in the Bus in the garage!

Great **PHUNN** Tyme today!!

We'll "process" the *snappies* and post em later ...

Big Bed Tyme for now!!

/s/ the Tiurd Bus Driver

[dukedogsmom]

Looks like you had a lot of fun! I am really going to try and make it next year. I would love to meet everyone and their dogs. Everyone got lots of good pics. I'll bet you all slept really well Sunday night.

[finn's mom]

Those are all wonderful photos! :) One day, I hope to join you all!


Anna, I'm sorry that Bon doesn't play well with others. I'm giving Finn a month after neutering, to see how he does. He may just have to avoid the park, too, and, join Bon on the bad boy list.

[Cincy'sMom]

Finally got my pictures uploaded...there is 93 betweenthe dog park and Ralph's families...lots of dog pictures from there too!

Hello everybody! We just got back from a few days in Toronto (which is why we couldn't join you) and last night at Niagra Falls, where we got to see some great fireworks with the falls as the background--pretty!
I was of course at the dogpark this evening with my very happy crew - talked to Rocky's "dad" - I think I saw a picture of Rocky hanging out with Tori on the hill - (he's the red fox lab) He told me you all seemed to have a good time! I'm so glad you are posting pictures -- all the pups look great, and Diana, your little Jasmine just gets cuter each time you take another picture of her! Looking forward to seeing more pics, and we're planning to be there for the Labor Day gatherin'!

I think we pulled in about 11:30.

[wolf_Q]

Great pics! I especially loved the family shots, great idea! It looks like Katie and Bon had a great time even if they didn't go into the park. I'm not sure about taking Nebo into a dog park again either :/ ...the last time I went he was just fine with every dog until a dominant malamute showed up. They both wanted to be king of the dog park, had a couple of scuffles (no wounds, just looked bad), the malamute's owners didn't seem to care or try to prevent it so I just left. Sorry for that little tangent there... :o

[luvofallhorses]

Great pics everyone! It looks like you all had a great time and Happy 1st b-day Bon boy! :D

[ramanth]

Though it was short, we're glad we were able to see some of you. :)

Great photos everyone!

Anna, Kia says to tell Bon, no hard feelings. :D

[sandragonfly]

great idea, anna! those each family photo is easier for us (who didn't go) to know who's who. :)

bringing many dogs made the small group look bigger! I love the smokey photo, looking up behind himself, too sweet!

lovely time you had, guys.. :D

I have opened all the albums, and have them sitting waiting for me to look at.

However, I LOVE this pic ............. spotties, spotties everywhere, and even on the shirt!!!

We were at the Doggie park with my GSD haley on this day. I noticed your group with all the dogs and as we were leaving, I thought Geeeeeeeeezzzzzzzz that family has a lot of dogs!! LOL Now it makes sense you guys were a dog group!!!!

I noticed the German Shepherd of course and his/her friends were laying under the tree like they were pooped out!!

I hope to join you all at an outing.....my Haley has met a few friends at the dog park and played her heart out several times to the point where we go home and she sleeps for hours!!!:) :)

I'll pay attention for another outing!!!!!!!!

[4 Dog Mother]

Welcome honeypie72! I remember seeing you as you went in. I am from Tiffin originally. Do you get to the Findlay Dog Park often? We don't go as often as we used to - mostly when there is a meeting. But we could probably meet you out there sometime - we have five dogs - An airdale, an airedale mix, a dalmation mix, a golden retriever/spaniel mix and an jack russel mix. Just let us know when you might be there or pm me and I will give you my phone number.

Oh, our next meeting will be Labor Day weekend. We usually get together on the Sunday of a 3 day weekend so our members from further away can get here easier. We will definitely be glad to see you at the next one!

[cyber-sibes]

Hope you enjoy PT, honeypie72! I'm at the Findlay park several times a week - would love to get together- I'll pm you!

[shais_mom]

I there!
I am from Upper Sandusky - and I was the one with the Golden that was off the leash! :eek:

Hope we can meet up there sometime - that would be awesome!
I get to Tiffin occasionally - Keegan vets at the Tiffin Animal Hospital.
