Yes, I am home. Sorry it took me so long to post, but things have been a bit overwhelming since I got home.
I had a great time today at the dog park, despite the fact that Katie was a bad girl today. I hope that this is not a sign of things to come and it was just a bad day for her. Anyways....I loved seeing everyone and all the furkids. Everybody looked fantastic and I love being around all the doggies. What a special treat that is! You just can't beat it.
Ok....the reason I am late getting on here and don't have my pics to show yet is because when I got home their was the cutest little puppy in my living room. My son was the only one home and I kept asking him who the puppy belong too and he would just smile and say it was ours. I just couldn't grasp that idea and still kept asking him who it belonged to. I thought that it might have been one of his friends. He kept trying to explain to me that it was actually mine and that Alden had got it to suprise me for my birthday this month. Surprise does not even begin to describe how I feel. I just can't believe this :eek: I am at a loss for words and can't even think of a name for her! She is sooooo adorable. Katie want to sniff and lick on her but the puppy just whines and growls at her. That part is going to take some time. Brandon says they got her from a farm and she was an outside dog along with her mother and they were filthy! He said you wouldn't believe the tub after Alden gave her a bath. Ok, enough chatting. Here is our latest addition! Oh...Anna and Amy and all you other husky moms. I'm going to need lots of advise on this one ;)

I can tell that Brandon is already very attached to her. Puppy and he are sound asleep in his room. I have to work all day tomorrow and it is going to kill me! I have to get to bed now so I will post all my findlay pics tomorrow if I get to them Everyone's pics were great! Gosh, I just love all those dogs!
Robin :)
OMG!!!
Robin WHAT GREAT NEWS!! Its a baby Nebo!!!!
I am glad you had such a great time!!! I bet it is overwhelming for sweet Katie!!! I know it is for Keegan too!!!
More news on that baby!
OMG!!! She looks like a baby Nebo!!!
Is this for real!?!?!?!?! oh my gosh!!!
OMG it's NEBO!! She seriously looks JUST LIKE Nebo did as a puppy! She has almost the exact same markings and the snow nose! AWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
I'm so friggin jealous right now! *sniffles*
OH, Amy! I hope she turns out as beautiful as Nebo! I never saw this coming. Alden says he has done some research, but I don't know a thing about them except I think they are beautiful. I am going to have to do lots of researching. Any advice from you will be much appreciated!!!!!
Wow, still just can't believe this!
Robin :)
Very real, Kay! I keep pinching myself and she is still here. Yes, I think Katie is very overwhelmed, Staci. She had a big day and is sound asleep right now. So is the puppy. I just wish I didn't have to work tommorrow so I could work with them both on getting to know each other. The puppy is a bit frightened. I think she only know the outside and her mommy and that has all changed very quickly, plus Alden had to give her a bath when he got home with her and he said that freaked her out a bit too. I need help with names!!! Nothing is coming to me. I just feel shocked right now! We were always talking about getting another one but said we would wait another year or two. Then he surprised me with this for my bday. That man always figures out some way to throw me for a loop. Gotta love him!!!!
I put my name suggestions in the other thread.
;)
*edit* i'll put my names in the other thread too. ;)
Oh How Beautiful!!!!!!
He is a Beautiful pupper!!!! (He?!?!)
How about "Bandit"???
Love his Mask!!!!!!
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its' great to get a pupper for Katie...so She can be the Alpha Dog...
Great Breed for her.....They are similar in Background,Will,Trainability,Weather,etc..
Both Wonderful breeds!!
What a shock to see a baby Nebo this morning!!! Congratulations Robin!!! What an awesome birthday present!! I think you should call in sick to work today ;) Love sick ;)
O my goodness! What a surprise! I would fall over dead if Carl ever surprised me with a pup! (course how would he have a chance when I keep finding them and "encouraging" him to let me bring them home. (Honey, there is a broken coated Jack Russell at the Lucas County Humane Shelter, if you would like to surprise me. I am sure Amy would be happy to go pick her up for me.)
The pup is BEATUTIFUL! I have always thought I would like to have a husky. But then again I think they might be a little too much for me to handle. But you have done a great job with Katie so I doubt you will have any trouble.
I come on here to check out all the new pictures from the park and find out there's a new addition to PT!! OMG was the first thing out of my mouth when I heard that you/Alden had gotten a husky pup:) I'm just overjoyed (and a little jealous;)) for you! Now little Katie will have a playmate all the time! How old is she? There must be another thread so I'm off to check it out!!
Great pictures Amy and Staci!
Still in awe over Robin's new addition. :D
We of course got home a-okay. I slept most of the way with Dreyfus' head on my lap. :D
Working on uploading my pictures now. :)
Love everyones pics. This one in particular cracked me up:
Hon...you better be reaching out to pet Dori... :eek: :rolleyes: :D

The slide show works great.
Great pics everyone!! Looks like you all had a great time! I can see your pics just fine Phred. :p
Congrats on the *Baby Nebo* RobiLee!!! She's ADORABLE, and looks SOOOO much like Nebo!

Great pictures, Phred! Except there were too many of me and my wind blown look!
Great pictures Phred!!! Spot looks like a dog from "The Dog" ( the T-shirts and toys with the dogs head really big). Too cute!!
Great pictures of Cinder and Smoke too...we don't usually end up with toomany of them somehow...
Great pictures everyone!
We need to get Carrie, Gabbiegirl, posting! :p
Isn't Gabbie the dane that was playing with Sim?
Yep, that's the dane! Gabby loves to play!
Hehe.. I just went back to look at the Findlay pictures from when we went... ahh I miss being there so much!
You all with your dogs! I am so jealous! I am mostly on the cat end of things (but not completely) and wish I had a dog I could bring to the park.... You guys are very lucky!
Anyway, Question: of all the pups and dogs that were adopted out from the Chicago catastophe, do any of you know how they are doing and are they keeping anyone updated on their well-being?
And what happened to the remaining dogs after the law said "no more adoptions to non-licsensed shelters" (If I remember correctly- it had to to do with silly stuff). I know this is not the right thread to bring this up on but since there is no thread here about this story anymore, figured someone would know (Mugsy?)
In the meantime, I will look at your photos of good fun!
Oh Everybodys' Pics are Fabulous!!!!
Phred...Could see yours' just fine!!!
Yes,Amy...Spot Does look like "The Dog"!!!!!!
What a Fabulous Day!!!!!!!
Looks like everyone had so much fun!!! The weather was just gorgeous--I bet you figured in April you would be wearing coats!!!!
I love all of the pictures!!!!
GORGEOUS PUPPY! Congratulations!!!:D

Cinder and Smoke,
I believe you're right. The colors look so much brighter &
the pictures clearer on IS.
I didn't notice in the other pics, but Cinder & Smokey were on
their 'dual lines' in some of the shots. :D
Thanks everyone for all the wonderful pictures. I hope to join
you all at the May PT Meet. :D :D
Great photos, once again, everyone! Thank you for sharing them all!!

IS vs PB?
On a scale of 1 to 5...
IS would be a 5 and PB a 4.
Seemed very close to me.
They all looked great.:)

Boss hit me with a big project on Monday... still working on it... Thursday deadline... eeks!
Looks like everyone had a great deal of fun. I am so sorry I missed it, but I will make it at some point this summer. I really enjoyed looking at all the photos.
Hi Everyone!
I love all the pics! I will try to get mine posted over the weekend. Like Phred said I have been very *bizzie*.
I had a really great time Sunday and loved seeing you all and all of your furkids. They are all beautiful! Its like being in doggie heaven. I love it! The food was great too. Gosh, I really did stuff myself and then I took home lots of cookies, cake and brownies and stuffed myself later on that evening...lol. I really loved Diana's potato salad. Yummy! I usually only like my mom's so that is a huge compliment Diana! I also want to get your carrot cake recipe, Anna and Staci, I want your taco dip recipe. PM them to me if you can ladies. YUM YUM! Next time I'll make sure I get there a little bit earlier so I can have more time to chat and catch up on what eveyone is doing.
I am really hoping that I can make it to the next one this memorial day weekend. sound like I am going to be able to meet even more new people. I love it. I did want to ask everyone if they thought it would be alright to bring Katie. I don't want to cause anyone to worry or offend anyone. I would really like to try one more time. I am hoing she was just have a super bad day. I am going to try and take her to doggie day care again just so I can see how she does there. She did really well the other time I took her. . Oh well, let me know what you think and you can be honest. I won't be offended.
Oh, yeah, I have to mention that I even got to bring some books home that Amy and Staci trade around. That was an extra treat. I will try to remember to bring some of my own to pass around and make sure I bring the ones back that I borrowed.
Great Day and Great Fun.
Hugs to you all....Robin :)
Well, Robin, I think you handled Katie excellantly. I have heard that Akitas are extremely stubborn. But I think Katie is such a sweetie. She got into it with Keegan b/c Keegan was so jealous of any dog that got near her Mommy. It wasn't Katie's fault at all, in her tiff with Keegan. The tiff she had with Kia, like you and Kimmy said Happened so fast I have no clue what happened, I just grabbed Keegan to prevent her from going over there. I think if I remember correctly, someone maybe had treats, and maybe is that how is started? I really don't know. :(
I think that Katie, (at the time of course, she isn't now)Keegan, and Kia all suffer from "single dog syndrome". Katie might be better the next time b/c she shares you now with Tori. On the other hand, she might be more protective over Tori, like Dazzi is over Taggert and Snoopy. I know that Kia and Keegan have gotten into it before if Kia gets near me with Keegan and if Keegan gets near Kimmy with Kia. Honestly, 2 years ago when Amy, Anna and I first met at the dog park, I seriously didn't think I would be able to let Keegan off even inside the fenced area b/c I didn't think she would EVER come back to me. I just didn't think that she and I were as bonded as my RB greyhound, Shaianne.
Little did I know. She never left my side that day! All the other dogs would go off and play with each other, but Keegan preferred the company of the people! If you see any pics of that day, almost all the pics of Anna, Amy and I, Keegan is somewhere near me! It really made me realize that she did love me and we were bonded. I think that was when it truly hit me that she was MY dog and I had a "MY" dog again.
Annnnnnyyyyy way, I digress. I don't think it is fair to you or to Katie to drive all that way and NOT bring her! And I don't want to see you NOT come b/c of that. Remember, I threatened Keegan that I would leave her at home if she didn't stop picking fights!!! :)
Those are my 2 cents! ;)
Well of couse I think you should bring Katie! I wouldn't let a couple of tiffs keep you away. Try it again, if it doesn't work then.... I'd hate to see you miss our gatherings!
I can't wait to see your pics! Give those gorgeous girls of yours a big hug from me!
Anna
P.S.
I'll try to pm you that recipe asap:)
We'd hate to see ANY of the FurPups get :eek: left at home! :(
Some options to consider...
Start a NUNbuddie gets a Free Lunch policy -
No Treat wiffout a "polite" *sit* or *shake* or *beg*...
(Dad gets :mad: when he sees wunna US jest *grabbin* a treet!)
An Ho-BOY - whut we gotta do ta get a treet when we getz back HOME :rolleyes:!
"Werk" fur two minnitz fur a louzee bisquit!
We'd rathur have a "Pay as ya Eat" program!
Should we load up a *Squirt Bottle* with an
"Attitude Adjustment Solution"?
Big Question is What would "work" for ALL the Dogs?
(Hate to use something that would *burn* if it got in the eyes.)
Time Outs?
I know it's better to NOT leash when entering the enclosure
(so no dog feels it's at a "disadvantage" when getting the
initial *sniff-over*).
But What About "Time Outs" when we're not close to the "Jail"?
Is it "safe" AND "effective" to *LEASH* Fido and enforce a
brief "Time Out" beside Mom/Dad to calm an overly-excited pup?
As a Last Resort -
An :eek: Muzzle?
I HAVE one for Cinder - but she's never "tried it out"...
Got it when it seemed she'd never stop "greeting" people with
her :mad: TEETH... but she finally started getting the message
with enforced SITs (or getting tied to a table) when visitors
came into range.
"I'd" rather see a pooch have to wear a muzzle for a while
rather than be left at home.
/s/ Phred
The reason I did not come back to the park was because I felt I couldn't bring Buddy with me. Some may remember last fall, I kept Buddy on a leash all day. I took him off twice and he just made me nervous charging at other dogs, I "think" he just wanted to play.. but he also is very very protective of me, and would not let other dogs get close to me. He had NO problems with people comming near me or petting him.
He's a sweetheart.
I felt very left out, and I feel it was because I kept him on a leash. But that's what kept him calm.. as well as piece of mind for myself. Anna and Robin were the two I remember most for trying to make friends with me.
It all just felt weird.... the best thing I remember is how Sierra and Roxey became great friends, and I would have loved to have brought Sierra to the park to play with Roxey and all the other pups again.... but I just couldn't leave my Buddy boy at home. So that's where I'll stay I guess.
When I first joined PetTalk, I thought to myself... Thank God I found people just like me..then to get to go to the park and meet these people and their dogs... how cool!!!!
But then after the park..I guess I feel like I've been pushed out of the "in crowd" as funny as that sounds comming from a 28 year old... it's just the truth. I really wish I would not have gone to the park last fall. Maybe I wouldn't feel like this. Maybe I wouldn't feel like no one likes me. Last year people were making Birthday posters for people, and they had all the dogs at the park put the paw print on the poster. No one asked me to have either of my dogs put their paw prints on it.
Sorry to have gone on like this... but after seeing all the fun you guys had... my emotions have just taken over me.
I'm sure people will have things to say about this... someone ALWAYS does!!:rolleyes:
... life just sucks sometimes... it really sucks!:confused:
