Florida PT Meeting - June 26th

[BitsyNaceyDog]

I'm so excited!

[dukedogsmom]

Me too!

[Kfamr]

I feel a bit silly posting these but I want to make sure out dogs stay safe and so does our house with 8 or so dogs romping around.

*PLEASE* pick up your dog's poop. Now that we've got our yard nice and clean, we like to make sure it's poop-free most of the time.
We have installed a "Doggy Dooley Septic Tank" - http://www.dog.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=250204+001&Cat=
We'll have bags that can be used to pick it up but *cannot* go into the septic tank. The septic tank won't work correctly with synthetic materials in it - so the poop only. You can throw the bag away in the trash can.


*PLEASE* watch your dogs, at all times! If you're not watching them, make sure someone is.


Our yard has two sections right now - one is an area with nice flowers. Our dogs are still learning to stay OUT of the flower beds, as before we let them do what they please. Please be near your dog in this area and don't allow them in the flowerbeds.

Just so no pups get jealous or pissy - lets keep bones away. Toys and treats will probably be fine. While we eat, lets keep our dogs on leashes or seperated somehow so that they don't get mad at eachother.

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up, I hope it doesn't sound snobby or anything.

Not at all. It's all too important to set up basic rules, just in case.

[Kfamr]

Any updates on those who were hoping to come? (Finn& Kari?? Beenie's Mom???)

[finn's mom]

I'm about 80% sure I'll be there! The only thing that will prevent me from coming is if I don't make any money with my new job! I really don't see that happening, but, I have never been in the insurance industry before, so, it's a possibility that I won't do well. I'm finishing my training this week, so, I'll know better by the following week how my finances will look!

[BitsyNaceyDog]

It's always good to have rules and guidelines when so many dogs will be in one place. I'm glad you posted that, Kay.

I'm toying with the idea of bringing Nacey instead of Nova this time. The others don't do as well with bigger dogs, so they aren't even an option. Nacey would share toys and play better, but Nova rides better in the car. We'll see, I'll post when I decide for sure who I'm bringing.

kay- I forgot to tell you that we may be bringing my sister over to Palm Harbor with us. Her boyfriend lives over there and she may come with us and spend the day with him. That's not confirmed yet though. She won't be at the meeting, I just wanted you to know.

[Kfamr]

Glad you and Finn may be able to make it.


Kari (Kblaix) - Either Nacey or Nova are welcome, or even both.

If your sister does come here, that's no problem! The more the merrier. I'm sure they'll be plenty of food for her, although it'd be awfully odd to sit with people you don't know whatsoever.

She wouldn't be at the meeting. We'd meet her boyfriend somewhere for him to pick her up and they'd go off for the day. She hasn't gotten to see him in 2 months (they've been dating for about 3 years, I think). I just thought I'd tell you that she might be traveling over to Pinellas with us. Just in case something happens and she has to be at the meeting (like if they get into a fight or something). There's maybe a 1% chance of that happening, but I need to be prepared in the event that something does happen.

Sorry it took me so long to let you know.....
We won't be able to make it this time.
I hope I get another opportunity to meet you all.
Sorry again.
I'll try to console you all by posting some new Beenie pics later today.

There'll be other chances! I'm sorry you won't be able to be there. I'm really, really hoping to make it down there with Judy (shutterbug) and Skye! It would just be super cool to meet so many of you!
