Memorial Weekend - Findlay Ohio!

Great pics everyone! Looks like you all had a great time! Amy's drawings were amazing, as always, and what a wonderful bench and trees in memory of Binxie and Smokey!

Great photos everyone. I also love the group shot around the memorial.

Glad everyone that has checked in so far had a safe trip home. And i cannot wait for the rest of the photos and stories.

Great pictures everyone!! Still hoping Liz checks in to let us know she made it alright!

It rained here from about the time we hit BG until about 8:30 pm, then it stopped for a few hours and we had a nice time at another cookout. About the time Ralph and our friend got the bonfire going it started pouring again (maybe 10:30 or 11). By about 12:30 I had had enough of the rain, and since there as no break in sight, we headed home.

I'm gettingpictures ploaded now. The dogs are still beat...they didn't even eat or go out before bed last night. Today, they got up about 9, went out, still haven't eaten, and Sadie and Spot are on the couch and Cincy is on the floor in front of the snoring

Debbie (and her big box of treats) was quite popular with the dogs

You will give me your lunch...you will...never mind, I'll just take it!


You drive us all this way to play, and then you tie us a to a tree?!?

Dogs went insane when they got in the house.


Sorry if I didn't talk much, again, and I really apologize how bratty my two were UGH.... figures! I really enjoyed seeing everyone again and meeting a few new people and dogs!

Hope Liz didn't have muhc trouble getting home. She passed us on the highway!!

It looks like it was a super fun day! It's funny but you lucky Ohio people have had so many of these meetings that I can almost identify everyone by now without even looking for names under pictures. Just color me a little envious for living too far to make the trip. The memorial bench was beautiful and so touching. What a sweet thing. Binx and Smokey we'll always remember you two. Thanks for posting the pics everyone. I'll keep checking to see more as they are added.

Hi guys, Smokey & I made it home o.k. The last 12 miles or
so where kinda "hairy" with blinding rain. really pushed it on
the way home cause the t-storms, etc. were predicted in Indy
by early evening. Had a few tornado touchdowns here on the
other side of town.

Smokey & I had a great time. ALL the doggies were wonderful
and Pet Talkers are a terrific bunch of people.

Have to go now & mop up a flooded basement.

p.s. Smokey wants to know if we can go to the park again today.

Great pictures! Sorry some of you hit some very scary weather.

Anyone hear from Liz? NEVERMIND! We posted at the same time.


Andy and I are now checking out pictures and dealing with sunburns. *bleah* Kia refused dinner and slept as long as I did.

(She's now supervising Andy who's cooking up some bacon... LOL!)

I won't be able to get pictures posted until tomorrow or sometime this week.

Glad to hear you got home ok Liz.

Will be waiting for more photos.

WOW! I have found myself caught up in the excitement! Being a *cat person* is different and I see all these dogs playing happily together and it is amazing I don't know *anything* about dogs!!! But I loved all the pictures and seeing the people behind the screen names and yes, some I feel like I already know. We live in Dayton and make regular trips to Ft Wayne so get off at 30, so will have to take a jaunt to Findlay one of these times and look at the new bench!! Hubby is just now taking an interest in PT and seeing just why I get so excited about it Maybe we can even attend one of the next meetings!

[Cincy'sMom]

Glad you guys made home safe, Liz and KayAnn!

Kay, your dogs weren't bad I don't know how Simba was, cause he was over in the shleter by the time I got there, but Nala was fine. She was a little vocal, but some people talk a lot too!! Spot loved chasing with her! I think she and Roxey are his favorite running buddies at the park

Sadie had fun playing ball with Honey too. I didn't get a picture, but they both went airborn for the ball at the same time and hit chest to chest. It was look a baseball bloopers reel.

Kimmy- I made bacon this morning too...dogs still haven't touched their food, but they were happy to eat the bacon and eggs!!!

Debbie- Findlay is a sraight shot up 75 from you...only about 1 1/2-2 hours. We'd love to have you come!!
