*Memorial Day Weekend *BASH* @ Findlay, OHIO Bark Park ~ *SUNDAY* MAY 25, 2008 ~

[anna_66]

Oh man what a day! And how exciting...Slick, our first international Pet Talker at Findlay! I have to say I did know it was her, but didn't know the second half of the surprise...our very own California Gini was there

I must say I had a WONDERFUL time and was so glad that we had a loaner dogmobile so we could ALL enjoy the day.
Even Bon got lots and lots of love and doggie treats (mostly coming from Gini and Slick) I want to personally thank them both for showing Bon so much attention and taking him for walks. He really enjoyed himself.

The group photo was pretty hard to get with so many people, so here's the best one I got along with a cute picture of Slick spending some one on one time with Bon and one of the surprise girls!

I didn't get many pictures but I'll post the ones I did get later after some much needed rest.

Diana, I'm loving your pictures. Looking forward to seeing more of them

Once again, a great day with great friends

Boy, I must have been tired last night! My last thread didn't post so I guess I pushed the wrong button so here is some of some special little pet talkers.

Dominic, you might be a little young to try and handle two dogs at the same time no matter how little they are!


and here we have two new "best" friends - Jasmine and Jonah - I don't think they hardly left each other sides














This is probably the best one of Jonah's face - I don't think he likes to have his picture taken - which I think he inherited from his mother because I don't seem to have any of her.

Here are a few pics that I took. I was too busy talking and petting dogs so I didn't take very many. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's pictures!

Love the pictures of the little ones, Diana. Jasmine, Dominic and Jonah were so cute!

[Ginger's Mom]

Great pictures. Thanks for posting pictures last night, Diana. I did check it out before I went to bed, and was happy to have gotten a glimpse into the fun of the day. You know, I thought it was Slick, but then she posted somewhere (maybe Miss Hoppy's thread?) after she left so I decided it wasn't her. And when you said Gini, I didn't know you meant our Gini.

Anna, thank you sooo much for getting a group shot. It sure looks like a great group of people. I cannot wait to see everyone else's pictures as they get home, up and uploaded. We will be able to enjoy this meeting all week as more and more pictures and stories are posted.

Sigh, I really want to go some year, but driving 550 miles on unfamiliar roads on a holiday weekend has stopped me every year. Some day I will do it.

[MoonandBean]

Those are great pictures! Glad to see everyone had a great time and it was nice to put some faces to the names (humans and dogs alike ). That picture of Zack and Jonah is awesome!!

[4 Dog Mother]

Here are some of my group shots - people kept moving in and out of them so you will have to see who you might see in one that is not in the other -- I do see one of Johanna with Jonah on her lap in the far left of this pic



Slick is in the far right of this picture by the fence


Here is Phred with Cinder and Smoke


And here is a picture of one of the most important people at the meeting, my hubby, Carl, why is he so important well that should be obvious - because he does the cokking!


Lots of locals in and out today - I could not believe how many little dogs there were - I have NEVER seen that many little dogs there before

Here's Jasmine holding Lucy whom you met at the Labor Day Meeting last year.


Here is Lemon

Lemon's sibling ??????



Not too great of a picture but this one is of Vinny, Madison and Tucker

Sophia and Brutus - Lucy and Vinny's siblings


And more that I didn't get a picture of.

Here I hope is where my album is http://share.shutterfly.com/action/w...rlm1dM&notag=1

Thanks for posting the pictures everyone. I look forward to seeing even more. After viewing this event each year I can recognize so many of you right away. Looks like another terrific day at Findlay!

[Kfamr]

I really regret not being able to come to this one! So many new faces and oh my gosh Jonah has grown up SO much! What a handsome boy. The pictures of the three future Pet Talkers were my favorite.


Keep the pictures coming!

[Husky_mom]

[Karen]

Okay, how about someone fill in names for those of us who were not there! I recognize many people, but not all ...



This seems a good one to try.

I know back row, standing up, is:

Staci (Shaismom), Monica(MonicaHonda), Angi (Pict9), Robin (Robilee), Ashley(k9krazy), then a couple I cannot identify, Kimmie(ramanth), Someone in a striped shirt, Andy (Fett), Gini in front of Andy, Carrie (Gabbiesmom), Vicki (Slick/klamjuz)

Front row:

Johanna(Cataholic) with Jonah on her lap, someone behing Tori, Carl, a woman with white hair holding - is that Fenway??? - Jasmine, Dominick and their mom (Dakotah's Mom), Amy, Phred (Cinder and Smokey in front),
Laurie (lbaker), and Ralph.

Anyone wanna fill in the blanks?

That couple in the back row you cannot identify - that's me, Gretchen (Grace) and Douglas. The gal with white hair, in front of Carl, is Mary (Mruffruff) holding her Scruffy.

What a wonderful day that was!! This was my very first time, and won't be the last.

Everyone is so friendly and nice, and the dogs are fantastic. I have a few pictures - was too busy talking to snap I guess.
