How does 10 or 10:30 sound to everyone ??!!
Don't worry, I'll let you know if I'm ever down there! :)
I assume it'd take me about that long, because I'm only 116 miles away from Vancouver and it would take me 4-6 hours to get there...
10:30 sounds good to Joxer! (and Joxer's mom and dad!)Quote:

perfect!
sounds good to me :D
I'll try to talk my mom in to taking me:rolleyes: :) Where will it be?
the off leash dog park at marymoor park in redmond. there are directions here.
or you can type the address into mapquest and get directions directly from your house:
6046 West Lake Sammamish Pkwy NE
Redmond, WA
We usually meet just inside the main entrance.. I cant remember which parking lot its by.. anyone else know? well, its the main lot enterance, its not hard to find.
This sounds good to me.
I'll be there, putting it on my calander now. Even if I have to work, I can still come for a while. My schdule is not really set if I work on the weekends.
I will be there without a puppy and the kitties are not really the outdoor types.:)
Is it 10 or 10:30, I'll keep on eye on the thread and see what is decided.
So, it's 1.31.04 at 10? Ok, me and Gigi will come. Gigi may not want to walk (She refused to walk when it's cold), but we could still hang out. :)
Oh, is anyone willing to give me their cellphone number? I am the MASTER of getting lost, so "just in case" I need to I can call and ask for help??? :o :o :o :o :o Pls PM me.
I'll PM you mine.
Katz
woohoo! sounds great! Im excited! Ill let kirsten and jiminy know- hopefully they can make it too! :eek:
I can give you mine too if you would like.
Just in case.
Let me know:)
Sure, pls PM me. :)
I'll give you mine if you want,
but my mom isn't too keen on taking me to meet "people off the internet":rolleyes: i still have time though:)
Have you showed your mom around PT before? Maybe she'll be more comfortable with the meeting if she gets a better idea of what it's like here :) I hope you can make it!
I'm very excited! Less than a week away now :D

Have your Mom come on the walk too!! We're not just people off the internet, we're people with pups ;) If she comes with you then we can all walk together and have a great time. She can also check us out from across the parking lot, we will be the big group right in front !!! Tell her not to worry, the worst that can happen is that we all get wet from Seattle rain and a little doggie slobber.:D
Katz
If you'd like, GP Girl, I can PM you my phone number and your mom can talk to my parents. I was 18 when I went to my first PT meeting and they still wanted to tag along. They'd be more than happy to talk to you mom if it would help :) If your mom is a dog lover she should tag along, my parents always have a fun time :)
omg i asked her and she said ABSOLUTLY NOT :( she wouldn't even listen when i told her she can call you guys:rolleyes: oh well i still have a week to work on her:rolleyes: :) keep your fingers crossed;)
here are the threads from past meetings at the dog park. hope you can both make it !

Thanks, i'll show them to her:)
Have you made any progress, GP Girl?
My cousin, Jeff, might come along and bring Austin.
John is going to tag along as well to see what's so great about these PT meetings I'm always talking about ;)
not much:rolleyes: i'm still trying...we have to take my sister to Bellvue and then we have a bunch of time to mill around and do nothing, so maybe i can get her to take me then...:( She hardly even consdered it though i stared asking her and before i could even finish the question she said no!:(
ugh, believe me G.P.girl I know how that is..... I *hate* it when my mom doesnt even listen to what I have to say.
yeah, marymoor is only 5 exits north from bellevue, so they are pretty close.
in other news... meet tyler! (soon to become brock if my parents give the final okay..):

I have signed the adoption form and paid the fee, so he is mine now, but techniqually we are just doing a trial run for a couple days just in case there are any problems. but so far he is simply marvelous! so hopefully you'll all be able to meet him on Saturday! as soon as my parents finally say he can stay for good, then Ill post a proper thread for him. but I thought Id give you guys a brief peek. :) (heres his album too: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4287864405)
What a great looking puppy.
Hopefully we will get to see him on Saturday.:D
Congrats Veegan to the new family member. :D
Are we still on if it rains like this on Sat??? I hope the rain will stop. Gigi loooooooooooves the sun and probably it will be too cold (it's already cold for her without the rain) for Gigi. But then of course I can carry her. ;)
We'll be in our rain coats !!!
I wonder if PetsMart have a raincoat that small for Gigi??? Last time I "made" her go out a walk with me in the rain (it was not raining as heavy as this...just a fine mist) and she was shaking and whining the whole way. I think it will be better for her if we can go from hot summer to cool autumn then to freezing winter. ;) She could adjust better. She is afraid of cold. She always like to sit in front of the heater. :)
I'm sure you can get her a rain coat at Pets Mart or PetCo. If not just get one for yourself and join us and let her rest by a nice warm fire. She'll be waiting for you when you get back !!
Katz
Yes, I've seen some small sized raincoats at PetCo :)
Hmm... maybe I should pick up one for Ruby. She has a blue sweater she wears when we go for walks in the cold and/or light rain, but a rain coat might be a good idea if we're going to be out in the rain for a couple hours. I have to do some shopping tonight anyway, I think I'll swing my PetCo and check some out :D
Joxer and I were going to check out the fleece at Petco, too. Are you going to the one in Everett?Quote:

We are so excited !!!!!!:D :D That is so cool that he is staying with you. Can't wait for Saturday to get here.

"We are so excited !!!!!! That is so cool that he is staying with you. Can't wait for Saturday to get here.

same here :)
do you guys know of some good offleash dog parks around here that are fully/securely fenced? Id like to have a place to go where I can let Brock off leash to play, since he doesnt know "come" yet. thanks
Here's the site that tells all the off leash areas. I think you live north, so not sure what is up there. The one we go to for
Dog-O-Ween is small and all fenced. And Grandview by our house is too.
http://www.cityofseattle.net/parks/p...ces/YoDogs.htm
I'm so happy to hear that you are going to get to keep Brock. Looking forward to meeting him on Saturday.:D
Has anybody looked outside, the sun is shining.:D At least it is were I am at. Just thought that I would share.
It is DARK GRAY in Auburn. Not raining right this second, but it will.
Tom's at the park now. The river (White) has been up, so dead salmon all over and he is having a time keeping the pups away from all that mess. Poor fishies.
There's one at the Lowell Park here in Everett. It's fairly small, all grass, and usually not very crowded. I've never actually taken Ruby there, but have driven by quite a few times. There's a beautiful trail nearby that goes along the Snohomish River that Ruby and I go on quite often.Quote:

That park might be a good place for off-leash training since, like I said, it usually isn't very crowded. If you want to come up sometime I can show you guys around :D Maybe Rubes too, unless you want to really focus on training :)
As for the weather - up here it isn't too bad today. A little cloudy, but I can see a *tiny* bit of sun poking though. And no rain! :D
Kat, aww, sorry I missed you guys yesterday at PetCo! lol :D I decided to go tonight after work that way Ruby can come with me. I had to go to Fred Meyer yesterday as well and I didn't think they'd be too thrilled about a 50lb mutt walking around their store ;)
I'll see you all tomorrow! We can't wait! :D
So... everyone is still on for today, right??? :D
Just a couple hours away! Ruby and I are on our way to Starbucks right now, but we can't wait to get to Marymoor!
The weather is looking nice too! I'm a little sad that Ruby can't put her new rain jacket to use ;)
See you all later!! :D
yeah!!! Brock didnt get his evening walk last night so he is definitely ready... lol
I was going to bring Buddy along too, but I decided itd be too hard to keep watch on 2 dogs at once since Buddy likes to wander, and Brock will have to be on leash the whole time. Ill have to keep a close watch to make sure dogs dont get tangeled up in it. and steph (buddy's mom) cant make it today. so, next time!
