Do We Have Enough Texans??

Well, I just need to know what is good for everybody else because at this point anything is good is for me. But as hubby *does* work and drive, I wouldn't be able to make it if it isn't good for him probably. The only days I absolutely can't come would be July 14-26.

Well, there are definitely dog parks we could meet at. I think I listed three that I know of already...one in Plano (really close to me), one in Fort Worth (the farthest from me, but, I can still do that one), and, one in Dallas. If we could go on a Friday or Monday morning (whichever day is included in your three day weekend), it would be a lot less crowded! The Dallas one is the smallest. I think the Fort Worth one is the largest.

There is also a free, open range, unfenced (but, a couple hundred acres, from what i understand) park that people take their dogs to all the time. We have taken our three there a couple of times, and, they love it. Lots of trails, creeks they can cool off in, etc. David has been going there for awhile and has never had any problems, and, we didn't the two times we've been. It's a nice place to go walking, very relaxing. It is also in Plano.

I just sent a private message to each of the people who have shown an interest in attending a DFW meeting. So, hopefully, we can get something together!

I would really want to go but my mom is taking summer classes at the local college, so she can't come. I'm sure she would want to be present when I'm meeting people from the internet (not that you all are bad, but she would just like to be there) So I can't go Sorry

Hey, that's understandable. Thanks for letting us know! Maybe next time! You let us know when your mom is available and maybe we can work around her schedule for a small meeting in the future!

Ok, I'll let you know. Sometimes we go out of town and it may be more convenient then.

Another good thing about coming to Plano, we have a boat if the folks at the meeting want to go out on the lake for a couple hours in the morning. There are places we can boat out to where the dogs can play in the water and on the land, completely off leash. So, if we're really on for Sunday (still waiting to hear from a couple people ), we can possibly even grill some burgers or hot dogs or something at the house (David has said he'd man the grill for us!). We have a fenced in backyard (not huge, but, not tiny, either). And, the park and the open range area are within minutes. I think I said that already, sorry. Can't wait to hear if you guys can come Sunday!

Plano is a bit far for me. I don't even drive to Dallas by myself unless I absolutely HAVE to. Like to pick up my mom from airport.

Let me know when you have one closer to Arlington

We can do one in Fort Worth. I won't be able to bring Freckles and Dudley, or grill out or use the boat at all, but, I don't mind driving an hour (especially when it's mostly highway!). I just suggested Plano because we have our house to chill at and cool off at and there's the open range dog walking, creek playing area. Way better than any dog park! Is that a for sure no? What kind of dog do you have that you'd be bringing, I could possibly even come and get you? I just hate that an hour drive would keep you from the meeting!

just saw your signature, would charlie be the only one coming with you? he could fit in my car!

ha. You're sweet. I also have a 19 month old human to come along.

Also, I just looked at the date. The 18th is the day we're leaving for Ks.

That's ok, I'll just meet up next time

Well, that stinks! Next time! I'd be willing to pick the three of you up, though, too...It'd be so worth it!
