I just called, and everyone made it safely to the Dog Park! There was much commotion of the human and canine kind in the background, and I spoke to: Staci, Gini, Phred, Angi(pict9), Ashley(K9Krazy), Robin (RobiLee), Anna, Clamjuz - I'll let someone else give away the secret, Kim(ramanth), Gretchen(Grace), Laurie (lbaker), Johanna (Cataholic), Joyce (joycenalex), Mary (mruffruff), and Diana (4DogMom, who actually lives in Findlay)!
In the background I heard several dogs, and lots of commotion!
Well, I guess I am the first to post from the meeting. What a beautiful day we had - great sunshine and not too high of a temperature, lots of Pet talkers, great food, lots of talk, new friends, and lots and lots of dogs! When we arrived Phred and Cinder and Smoke were already there as were Gretchen (Grace) and her husband (Douglas), Johanna and Jonah, and well, I am not too sure who else - they were the ones up at the food pavilion - unloading 8 dogs (yes, we took them all!) and 2 kids, 3 adults, cooler, food, cameras, - well it was a little crazy for awhile. Thank goodness, Gretchen and Douglas took Tucker off our hands because he was right away trying to cause trouble by jumping up and biting any dog that came near - even his own siblings and cousins.
Arrival and not in order were Angie and Sierra, Robin and Tori and Zack, Monica and Honda, Anna, Mark, Bon, Roxey and Huny, Mary, her two grandaughters, and her dogs, Scruff and ?, Kimmy, Andy, Chipper and Kia, Kimmy's sister and her husband and Sasha, Ashley and Jack, Laurie Baker and her friend, Gini, Staci and Keegan, Joyce and Peanut, Amy, Ralph and Sadie, Cincy, and Spot, Carrie and Gabby, and of course Christy, Jasmine, Dominic, Dakota, Destiny and Sierra, and of course, Clamjuice also known as ..................................are your ready........................... are you sure you want to know..............................Slick!!!! from Canada - what a surprise and nice one at that! Never thought I would get to meet her. If I forgot anyone I am sorry but what a long, tiring day - we got there about 11:15 and didn't leave until 7:00 - with many still staying on. Yes, we got a picture, I am uploading mine now and I will be back in a few minutes with some.
Let's begin our day at home. Carl got to sleep in this morning - or at least he sort of did. Here's the first time I saw him - with 5 dogs.

Tucker wants to know what's going on - and up he goes - 6 dogs in bed with Carl
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
The next time Dazzi jumped up - now 7 dogs - wonder how much more sleep Carl got?
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Aren't Dakota and Destiny just so cute together
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Okay every one back to sleep now (Jack almost never gets on the bed- he was probably sleeping on his bed next to Carl's side of the bed.)
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Ut oh, here comes trouble - I think sleeping is at an end now as Jasmine joins the crew!
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Look who is waiting for everyone - yep that is Cinder and Smoke
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Here is Honda - Monica's Dalmation - reminds me too much of my Snoopy boy I miss him!
http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/4...JZOGrlm1B7efAg
Here is Joyce with Peanut behind her, Staci and Keegan and Laurie Baker

Let's see the clearest ones are Gini in the blue shirt, Monica and Honda, and Angie.

Just wanted to check in and say that I made it home. I'm wore out, Tori and Zack are wore out and Miss Katie is ready to play. Poor girl was home alone all day and is happy to see us.
I had a great time and was happy to see my old friends and thrilled to meet new friends in person. What a wonderful surprise to see Slick and Gini there.
Diana, your pictures are great! I only took a few this time and I'll try to get them uploaded tomorrow. Too tired right now. Left at 9am and got home at 11pm. I'm wiped out!
FUN DAY!
great pics so far "MOM"!! ;) (my East Coast PET TALK MOM)
well I'm home and showered and ready to fall over - I told ZIPPIE I wasn't going to get online but needed to email Joyce so I did.
what a WONDERFUL day -
I knew that Clamjuz was Slick - I flat out asked her awhile ago and she couldn't lie to me but that didn't stop me from telling a few white lies along the way - and then a few weeks ago while I was on the phone with my WEST COAST PET TALK MOM - she couldn't stand it anymore (like a kid in a candy store ;)) she says I'M COMING! I can't begin to tell you how friggin excited I was. I didn't know if I would get to see Gini again for years! But I was sworn to secrecy so I of course only told one person - who I CAN NOT keep secrets from!!! *ZIPPIE* ;) :D
Slick, Gini and I were able to go out to dinner last nite in Findlay and surprise Laurie and Mary at dinner :)
EVERYONE were very shocked to see GINI and SLICK BOTH there. And surprised I was able to keep the secret as well!!!
lol
Karen and Tonya both called and were passed around.
I finally left the park @ 10:10pm :)
it was a LONG TIRING DAY.
But welllllll worth it! I didn't take many pix tho - I was just toooo busy! :D:D:D
