Great photos! Robin, I love the one of Sherman sneaking up on that bag of treats! Did you notice how close to the picnic table & goodies he stayed the whole time? :D These pictures will bring back wonderful memories in the gray winter ahead (at least for us mid-westerners). It was so touching to see Tonya greeting Bowser, and Robin, your picture captures how special it was! I think it touched all of us :) That moment really celebrates how special our bonds truly are. And I think my dogs recognize many of the people/dogs that attend, too! Thanks everyone for sharing your pictures!
Yes, he does! He's also very tall. I left when my SIL was ready to go home with her two boxers, but the the collies had not yet arrived. I came back- -- and I'm glad I did! Tim's dogs are awesome! Of course I had to come back to try some of Staci's culinary creation, and chomp a few more of Phred's delicious cookies... :DQuote:

Freckles, I think a lot of the treats were still there when we left. All the new comers are going to think they hit the jackpot when they get there!
Thanks for the wonderful pics everyone. We just had a blast. I will get my pics uploaded very soon.
Oh you guys have done it again, but even in a more special way this time!!!! :) I'm so happy that Tonya was able to be there and see Bowser again after all these years!!!!! :) I know you were all happy to have her there with you.
Yes, I'm green with envy :o , but I've enjoyed all of your pictures so much!!!!! :D Thanks!!!!
Logan

Snoopy started having seizures again. The first one was yesterday morning as I was getting ready for work. He did okay (I guess since I work 9-3) the rest of the day but this morning he had another one. I am now out of valium so I had to call the vet to get some. The vet is planning on calling me this evening to see how he is doing. Snoopy did the same thing about two weeks ago. Had one on a Sunday morning and then again on a Monday morning and then was fine until now. Sure wish we could come up with why he is having them. Keep our Snoopy in prayer!

Hard to believe, after seeing him so Normal, Active & Happy on Sunday.
I hope his Good Days http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/smile.gif continue to far outnumber his not-so-good days.
More {{{Hugs}}}
/s/ Phred
You bet, Diana. He looked really good & was sooooo happy on Sunday, it was great to see him again. We'll keep him on our puppy prayer list.Quote:

And Jack came out from under the table quite a bit - I got several nice pictures of him. (all on the link I posted). It was really a nice day for all.
I loved everyone's photos!
I'll keep Snoopy in my prayers. *hugs*
Sorry to hear that Diana. I'll definitely keep him in my prayers.Quote:

the highway - figgered I'd just leave 'em that way to make getting out easier.
We arrived and they started carrying on to get OUT of da Bus!
I let em out with the intent of hooking them to "their tree" while I unpacked ...
I THOUGHT they were hanging in the Pavilion while I got out the tie-out cable.
Uhhhh, NO - they *vanished*! http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif
I looked over and they were being escorted through the double gates at the Park!
As I said in the Photos - this was the FIRST Tyme they played Happily & Quietly
IN the Park while I was OUTside of the Park!
Wonders will never cease!
Sincere THANKS to ALL who helped keep an eye on the Three Amigos!!

I think you're funny too, Bon :D Sometimes I wish I could roll around on the grass kicking my arms & legs around too :D :D You big goof ;)
I delivered Zippy to the airport
after a trip to Sephora and only getting 'misplaced'
twice. :eyeroll:
My stomach was in such an uproar from it we didn't even eat lunch as planned I dropped her off 3hours ahead of time and I am home with most of the yard mowed and she should be just now boarding the plane!
I'll know better next time.
:)
oiii
I hope her book keeps her entertained.

I hope it was a THICK book!
FlightAware says she's half way across Texas - due in Midland, Texas at 9:35 pm EASTERN time.
Then it's fetch the car from the lot and DRIVE for TWO http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/eek.gif Hours to get herself HOME.
Prolly going to be Midnight (Eastern) or 10 pm New Mexico Time when she gets to her house.
Wish her a SAFE Trip!!
>>Sure was **PHUNN** having her at the Findlay Gathurin!!<<
/s/ Phred
11:20 pm EASTERN Time = 9:20 pm Zippy Time ~
She just pulled into Hobbs, NM, and called home to "see what's for dinner?"
Now she's taking a slight detour down the fast food strip to find something
she'll *like*! ... House menue didn't sound so hot. http://petoftheday.com/i/our_smilies/tongue.gif
THANKS, God - for getting her to Ohio and back Home SAFELY!!
