*sigh* I wish I could make it. Have a wonderful time everyone! I'll be thinking of you all while I'm working Hope the weather is great!

Yes - I think they are hard on people with multiple dogs -
Course with Keegan's hips I don't visit it near as much as I used to - she's content to run around my yard or my parents yard - I don't have to wear her out as much as when she was a pup. But I wish they would put a sign that said if you want to play ball or whatever go to the open areas outside the dog park - that drives me NUTS when kids are running around playing ball etc - and then the dogs are getting excited and stealing balls - etc.
Course some people don't have enough common sense to fill a thimble so why am I surprised....

Amy, yes, I will get yours too. Send the vet info - or I think I will be in Toledo on Saturday. (Got to get more flowers). I think Jack is due for a shot, so I can set the appointment for early next week and get all the records then. And we should be all set.

DRAT DRAT DRAT. Turns out I'm going to be in Indianapolis for a Science meeting the 5th of June and if I had known earlier I could have made arrangements to be in Findlay the weekend before and rented a car or something. Alas, not to be Is there a PetTalker in the Indianapolis area? I know Mugsy is in Fort Worth but that's not exactly in neighborhood. Oh bother

Well..... I thought I was sure I couldn't come to the park... but things may be changing!!

My plans (may have) fell through for Memorial Day weekend and Sierra and I may be able to come to the park after all.
But.. I need to get her into the vet to get her shots (I only vaccinate every 3 years) and I can't get in until 8:30am Tuesday morning (the 22nd).
I think there's about an ice cubes chance in h*ll that I'll be able to get a registration by next weekend.
Has anyone here had to ask (BEG) the park to put a rush on a doggie permit??
Phred... Amy... Diana... anyone have any contacts that could pull a big favor if need be??

Pass da ICE, please!

Fret Not ... they want your $ Money - there's always a way!

* Go to the Application Page and Print it out (BOTH Sides) and Fill it Out.
Form = http://www.hancockparks.com/pdf/DogParkApplication.pdf

* Add a NOTE saying what you said above, and PROMISE to FAX them a copy of the
Vet's report/receipt on next Tuesday.

* Ask 'em to FAX you a letter or note or receipt stating that you HAVE a DP Permit for 2007

* Be sure to give 'em a Return FAX number that will be answered all week ...
no tellin what day they might FAX back to you.

* Make out & SEND your Check for $10.00 with the Application & Note ...
(Remember - they want your $ Money!)

*Try to mail the stuff TODAY ... then follow up with a Phone Call after you
FAX the Vet's shot record on Tuesday.

* Come Tuesday, FAX another Copy of the Application and your original note;
AND the Vet's Shot Record AND a copy of the Rabies Vaccination.

BRING A COPY of Everything with you on Sunday ... even if you don't get a note back,
I doubt the Cops will drag you away in handcuffs if you have a copy of everything.

In years past, they've "hand delivered" passes for Kay via the Park Rangers
on Picnic Day ... but there are no Rangers on duty anymore, just Sheriff Deputies.

Note: Don't "call" 'em NOW ... they'll have time to think of a dozen reasons to say NO!
WAIT till after you've sent the Application and Check, and FAXED the Vet's Stuff ...
THEN call 'em to "verify they got everything".

The two "Girls" to arrange things with:

#1 = Cynthia M. Sheridan, Administrative Assistant
#2 = Margie Statler, Office Manager

Office PHONE = (419) 425-7275
Office FAX = (419) 423-5811 ** CORRECTED Fax #

SEE ya on the 27th!!

Paws crossed my plans I already had for the weekend (continue to) fall through and Miss Sierra and I will be there!! Oh I hope I hope I hope!
It's been Yeeeeears since my last visit to the Park!
