Post away if interested in being part of D.O.G.
Right now thinking of ..... Option 1 - Sunday August 14th Option 2 - Saturday August 13th with the rain date Sunday 14th. Location - Toronto High Park - Bloor West Village Walk Time - 12:00 Noon Toronto is about as dog friendly as you can get for a city. Bloor West is a great little area and nice place to walk. High Park is huge and has acres and acres of space. Toronto is about as central an area of Ontario you can find. It's reasonalbe distance to drive for most and the GTA has a good number of Dobereich dogs. you go out 1-2 hours from Toronto and you cover a huge area and a good amount of Dobereich owners. Agenda...... very informal SHORT Walk - from HP to Starbucks and back to HP for those that find a longer walk too much, have maybe N or O litter pups etc. same walk as DOG I. LONG WALK - from HP down Bloor street through Bloor West Village half way or down to Jane and back to Starbucks and then back to HP. Optional Informal Picnic - Everyone have an informal picnic in HP after the walks if they have interest, bring a cooler with some simple food, have lawn chairs and relax etc. or just head out if schedule doesn't work for the person.
I'm planning basically everything as a leashed event. High Park has an Off Leash area if some care to go. I suspect we could get multiple males next time and many could be intact so having them in an off leash area together is not an option IMO. I want to have this all fun and promoting our breed and breeder and a doberman dog fight in High Park isn't good for breed or breeder IMO.
Post away............. Would you come? Preferred day Sat or Sun? What dog are you bringing ( male, female, age) Is your dog spayed or neutered or intact? Short Walk? Long Walk? Picnic after? You are fine leashed? You would explore offleash area?
Waiting to hear from the mothership but I think it's ok and I want to gauge response and attendance. Working on some cool stuff for members and a head count would really help to decide on my cool stuff ideas.

Lots of intact males are bad for business in an off-leash area... the mafia may cause a nasty scene LOL... The Godfather Part IV. Just kidding, but a leash walk is perfect for everyone!!
Sat or Sun is great for us Reyna, Female, 1 year old Spayed Long Walk PICNIC!! Leashed Walk & maybe Off-Leash Area after lunch
I have 4 large coolers at my kitchen (which is really close to HP) that I will bring with Ice & cold packs. People can store their goodies in there while we walk if needed.

Sun preferred, could do Saturday Zeus, Male, 2 1/2 years old Intact Long Walk Picnic Leashed Walk no offleash with Zeus
I have like half a dozen folding chairs, a couple coolers that will be filled with Ice and bottled water and if needed 2 EZ up tents 10'X10' and 10'X15' if needed, I'll decide as the event gets closer.

Would you come? yuss! Preferred day Sat or Sun? Prefer Sat, however can probably switch a shift to get Sunday off work. What dog are you bringing ( male, female, age) Female, as of today is 12.5 weeks. Is your dog spayed or neutered or intact? intact.. Short Walk? yes Long Walk? would have to go by how she is feeling, she is not active for long periods of time Picnic after? diddo You are fine leashed? yes You would explore offleash area? I would like to but we would see, with her being so young maybe not.
We are in for sure, just got to play by ear how much activity Scarlet can handle for the day as I know it's going to be tiring for our young girl! But we will definitely be coming out.
