Here is a link to my album. The first 12 or so are ones of my roses that started blooming yesterday, and a toad the dogs found in the flowerbed, that we guided to safety outside of the fence. After that, the Party pics begin!
Beautiful Ruby

Great pictures, both of you! All the dogs look like they got along well, from the wee boxer pup to Bon squashing Kay - I mean "sitting in Kay's lap!"
Whew, finally settling down at the computer after a shower (of clean water, not dog slobber ;) ) What a wonderful pic nic- so many great people and dogs! Especially considering how HOT it was, all the doggies did very well together, sharing the cool spots & water buckets! Amy, you got WAY MORE than just a little sun, girl! :cool: Great picture of Keegan & the water, Kay, and Sherman looked so handsome in the green bandana you made.
JoJoe's downloading the pictures now, I'll put a link soon. Glad everyone's making it home ok!
We're home too (actually got home around 9).
Man did we have a great day! So many good friends and so many awesome dogs:D The weather was a little on the warm side so a couple of the guys went and bought a kiddie/doggie pool and the dogs had a great time cooling down...just wish they would have bought one for us humans;)
I've been busy getting everything in order here and looking at all the pictures everyone's posted so I haven't gotten mine uploaded yet, but I'll work on it and get them done asap!
Thanks again to EVERYONE who came.......
We had a Blast:D
JoJoe took alot of great distance shots - just imagine yourself as part of the crowd if you couldn't make it in person! (By the way, I ate your dessert for you ;) )
All the pictures are here:
PT Memorial Day '06
Wow JoJoe those are really some great shots you got there, actually everyone got some fabulous pictures! So many great memories to cherish this weekend:D
Well I've finally got my pictures upload. There are so many that are my favs (although not great pictures, I was too excited playing with the pups to take good pictures;)) so I thought I'd just pick out the pictures I got of everyone and their families.

Good night, sleep tight everyone!
Wow what a great day you all had. I'm glad to see Lindsey and Ruby. Been wondering about you two. (Brock and Vegan too)
Tinkerbell and I enjoyed meeting all of you at the Memorial Bash in Findlay,ohio.
Thank you for the birthday bags.
The National Dachshund race is coming up 9-24-06 at the Hancock fair grounds.this year we would like to add some new things for all breeds.
the first is meet the breed on the one side of the fair grounds you will have a lot of room to show and teach others about your breeds.
I'm looking for captains for each breed group.these captains will be in charge of planing events is and inviting those to come.I will have equipment out for you to play on.
a rescue a thon all rescues are invited to come and set up.hopefully we will be able to find these babies a new home.I will be willing to do home checks on the dogs.
for most of you the national dachshund race raises funds for places.
each year I try to find those in need to send them funds.
vendors are welcome to come and set up at a small fee.last year over 5ooo people attended and over 150 dogs were in not just the races but the events to.a film crew fromcalif. called weiner takes all came and put the day in a documentary that they are doing and also made dvd to sell with 8.00 of each one sold going to coast to coast dachshund rescue.
if you would like to come please let me know and most forms can be found at www.weinerrace.com

I'm not sure if it was the shade of the Danes, but Cincy liked laying with them! When I got the camera out, Kane was licking her face, but I snapped, he was sniffing her butt :rolleyes:
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...7/eeca114d.jpg
There is just something about Danes and huskies playing together! That is Griffin leading the pack.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...4/eeca1112.jpg
I think Andy and Ralph were the heroes for getting the pool! Talk about a watering hole!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...7/eeca04b3.jpg

We made it home close to midnight last night... too exhausted to turn on the computer and check in ;)
It was so nice meeting you all, Ruby and Justin both had a great time as well. Ruby was/is POOPED, she slept through the 4 hour drive home... and she and Justin still haven't woken up since falling asleep the near instant we walked into the house last night.
I've enjoyed looking at all the photos posted, I'm going to look through the albums as soon as I finish writing this :D I'm working on uploading mine, I'll post a link ASAP.
Again, we had a great time yesterday! I'm glad to hear you guys made it home safe. We look forward to seeing you all again! :D
Great pictures everyone! Anna, you did a great job capturing the event. Don't be so hard on yourself! I love the last one of Bon. It sort of says it all! LOL! Looks like a great day even with the heat!
I was waiting for these pictures! The dogs look like that had a blast. I love all the pictures. :)
Alrighty, HERE'S my photos from yesterday. Enjoy! :)
The pictures are all so wonderful. Thank so much for sharing everyone. I was so upset once I got there and relized that I forgot my camera. You all came through and have wonderful pictures. Thanks so much! I was so happy to meet everyone. Kane, Trinity, and Griffin just had a blast. They make lots of friends and didn't even wanna leave. I think they have been sleeping for 24 hrs straight...lol....Glad to hear that everyone made it home safely and also had a wonderful time.
These pictures are wonderful, I almost feel like I was there! Thanks for sharing everyone :D
GREAT PICS EVERYONE!!!! :D I CAN'T WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR! :D me and all my pups are commin!
Great! Now you have to absolutely absolutely promise to bring the beautiful Miss Gracie! As you can see, there are LOTS of huskies attending, and they have a blast!Quote:

I really feel like it's a tribute to all the dog folks that all the dogs got
along so well.I was a little worried that Smokey wouldn't drink any water
at the park. It was so hot & I know he was having a good time, but think
maybe he was just over excited. He really attacked the water dish when
we walked in the door here.They both ate, drank lots of water, then slept
straight through the evening. They are still snoozing in the AC at home. :)
I sure wish I lived closer to the park, I'd probably go everyday.
Aw Lindsey, I can't see your pictures:( It says: The Page your looking for is not available.

Aw, it would be nice to see you & your pups more often too. Smokey & Maggie sure seemed to enjoy themselves. :)Quote:

actually walked across the front seats and jumped out the drivers side
window. :D She's never done that before. :D
I've thoroughly enjoyed seeing your pictures, everybody. It looks a fantastic day! :D
Great pictures everybody!! It looks like a fabulous event. How cool to see all those Pet Talk pups in pictures together(and their owners ;) ). This thing is starting to look like today's Woodstock ;)
Staci and I were talking yesterday about how big it has gotten, since her, Anna and I got together the first time, In September of 2002 (my mom was there too, but that was before she joined PT).Quote:

Sorry it took me so long to get my pics uploaded. My nieces are still here and they keep me busy :rolleyes: . We finally sat down this evening and put them on imagestation.
We had lots of fun and I was so happy to see the regulars and thrilled to meet the newcomers. We want to thank Anna and Kay for the wonderful gift bags. My dogs loved them. Anna, Katie has been carrying around one of those tiny stuffies like it is a baby or something. Sometimes she keeps the whole thing in her mouth and all you can see is the tag sticking out. I have to keep a close eye on her, gotta make sure she doesn't swallow it. We put it up and she gets it right back out and totes it around everywhere with her.
Damika, Tangie and I want to shout out a great big happy birthday again for Roxey, Kaige and Crayola!!
Too lazy to post individual pics, so here is the link to the ALBUM :p
