Labor Day Sunday Findlay BARK PARK- Sept 2nd

[Randi]

So glad you had a great time, it also seems the weather was perfect. I enjoyed seeing the pictures, and looking forward to the rest - in due time.

Hi guys! I just now got my pictures on the computer but I don't have time to mess with them right now because I'm off to another big picnic. Family thing and just a few other family dogs on leash so I've decided I'm taking Katie with me today. Poor Tori won't be happy but she had her day yesterday.

The pictures are great and I haven't had time to go through all the albums yet. I'll try my best to get mine on here this evening.

To all the others that posted and couldn't be there. It really is a fun time and I wish you all could come sometime.

Love ya all!

P.S. I'm covered with mosquito bites!....LOL. Definitely worth it though

What great pictures and I loved Anna's video. Why is it that Lucy's name is just perfect for her?

It sure looks as though all of you had a great time - and the dogs all act like cousins and they are so happy to see each other.

Glad that all of you got home safely? Phred? Are you still sleeping?

Going to go back and look at the albums now.

great pics everyone!
I talked with Phred - he and the pups stayed in Fostoria over the weekend b/c his normal hotel was flooded.
when I talked to him he was sitting at the railway in Fostoria watching the trains go by (Fostoria has very high train traffic) they were going to look for a swimming hole on the way home.
AND
I got a message from Joyce while I was eating lunch, she wanted to make sure we had a great day and she was green and terra cotta and some color with jealousy! I think she got the days mixed up! But the wishes were the same so I posted them here.

Great pictures everyone! Wish I could have made it.

[Cinder & Smoke]

We made it back to the Ranch - A-OK!

Dad figgered we otta check in - let everyone know the Motel Cheap! Beddy-Buggz didn't

Perfektly Honest ... da "thrill" of a kupple thousand Iron Horses poundin the rails
hard enuff your teeth rattle anna guy inside HONKIN doze HORNZ ta make ya DEAF ... We sed "Sure Dad ... lead us on!"

Sittin inna lil lot across frumma old Amtrak Station in Fostoria ... TWO westbounders
roared thru towne ... almost side-by-side onna NS tracks ... just as Miz Staci called!
We hadda jump back inna Bus to *yap* wiff her.

Lil later we got *Honked At* by da guy drivin a Herd 'o Cats (CSX painted Chessie da Cat
onna lotta their engines) as he was slowin down da herd for a "bad signal" that
was gonna make him stop his "hot" train. Gotta BIG *wave* out the cab window, too.

Hour later we wuz headed east towards home an heard onna scanner dat da "Hot Cat Train"
finally got past the bad signal in Fostoria and they were gonna try to give him "good signals"
while he ran east ... a lil *hint* to "notch 'em up and run QUICK" ...
We pulled over inna lil parkin lot beside the tracks to *watch* ...

Sure 'nuff ... horns inna distance - black smoke above the tracks ...
Here come da CATS ... High-Ballin east!
Dunno if he really reko-nized da two WIDE-Eyed Mutts inna back door window or not -
but we gotz a *Honkity*Honk* anna *wave* affore he passed us -

We train-watched around Barberton; then headed fur a swimmin hole.
Couldn't find a dock to dive offa till it strated gettin *chillie*.

NOW we gotta un-pack da Bus an store away da leftovers ...
and find da Camera inna Bus.

Finally got my pics uploaded. A lot of mine are of Sammi. I don't see her much and really enjoyed watching her have fun the other day so I took a lot of her. Haven't taken many of Tori lately either so took quite a few of her also. I tried to talk Brandon into letting me keep Sammi but he won't got for it.....geesh! A dog that Katie actually likes and I can't have her

Sammi


Pretty and sweet Shadow


Some of the girls


Tori gets a brushing



"C'mon Aunt Anna can't we stop now"

Hmmm, wonder why they are all looking at Phred.


Run, Sammi, Run

Love this pic of Brutus

[RobiLee]

Sophia in the front and Brutus behind her. Sophia has a little bit of akita in her and I really thought she somewhat resemble Katie when she was a puppy.

Here she is again. I couldn't get a decent shot of her.



My cute little grandpup, Sammi

[cassiesmom]

Phred, do you have treats in your hand (or, did you just give everyone treats)? Is that why all the dogs are by you?

[joycenalex]

...AND I got a message from Joyce while I was eating lunch, she wanted to make sure we had a great day and she was green and terra cotta and some color with jealousy! I think she got the days mixed up! But the wishes were the same so I posted them here.

very disoriented as to the day!i have been so busy that i've lost track. great photos and i gotta go scrape off the paint dots before work this morning.

[cyber-sibes]

Robin those pictures are wonderful! I wish we could have joined you all. Maybe in the spring?
The boxer with white socks is Sarge, he's Luci & Brutus' "cousin". That goldenoodle looks like Milo - he's got the softest fur ever! I recognize the schnauzers & poodles, but don't recall their names. They began coming to the park close to he time we left Findlay.

[pitc9]

I had so much fun! Can't wait to do it again in a few months!
It will be great to get together again on a cool crisp day! The dogs will be more active and us humans won't be fighting for every tiny bit of shade!

Talk about a back seat driver!!

Maybe she just wanted to make sure we didn't go through Norwalk again!


Here's Anna... talking on the phone to Mark and Bon while petting Shadow!


Sierra & Sophie


Ashley getting kisses from Miss Minnie!


Spot & Sierra telling secrets?

[pitc9]

Here's Lucy making sure she's not forgotten about when treats are being passed out.


Sierra found something worthy of rolling in.


The pool was a great place to be on such a warm day, especially for this Boxer that realized that Sierra would not get him if he was in the water!


Group shot!


Sierra on the way home.
