Pet Talk Meeting - Melbourne!
Michelle (Captain), Vanessa (Henry'smummy), Shane (Mr Meow) and I had a meeting yesterday :) Mother Nature smiled upon us with a stunning winter's day and we met at the dog-friendly Middle Park beach near the city so Captain, Ruby and Henry could play, chase other dogs, swim and eat the odd starfish or two (more on that later ... sorry, Vanessa!)
Captain, Ruby and Henry are the most beautiful dogs! Captain was friendly, gregarious and playful, even though Michelle had arrived early to pre-exhaust him! Ruby is a wonderful girl, very friendly towards people and tried to like other dogs - but we got to see her pearly white teeth when she smiled at strange canines! Henry had just been promoted in obedience class and showed us his selective hearing and wonderful ability to evade people when he has something in his mouth that he shouldn't :)
I was so enthused at meeting the dogs that I kind of forgot to take pictures of the two-legged PetTalkers, oops ... next time, I promise!
Here are the pics.
Ruby enjoying the just above zero water. It's amazing how dogs don't go WHOOOOAHHH when they step into cold water and complain for ages like us humans ;)

Captain returning from his 'meet the people' trip. White with black spots contrasts well against the sand, so we could easily keep an eye on how far away he was!

Henry was teasing the furry brown toupee's furry grey toupee friend and received similar treatment!

More to come
So glad you pm'd me about this thread Michelle!
Wow, it looks like the furry ones had a great day at the beach (even in the cold water:eek: )
Oh how fun it would have been to be there and meet everyone's dogs, they are all just B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!
Thanks so much for sharing your pictures Nicole! I would have loved to see the people attached to the leashes also, maybe next time!
PT MEeting Melbourne - Henry Sick!
Hey Nicole and Michelle,
Great to see you yesterday (and the lovely Shane aka Mr Meow of course)
Thanks so much Nicole for these fabulous photos, real doogy action, real Melbourne sunshine, great pups, what more could we ask for???
Ruby and Captain are wonderful, gorgeous dogs. Henry loved playing with Captain in particular and is, still earning his manners for next time he sees Ruby.
Unfortunately, whilst the starfish seemed like a great idea at the time, Henry suffered badly for his gluttenous performance. He was very, very ill after we got home, it seems the poisonous starfish had their revenge. :(
On a brighter note, Henry seems to have recoverd and is back to his normal cheeky self today:p
Thanks again guys, it was great.
Vanessa.
