How's this for short notice.......who's available this coming Monday night...April 22 @ 7 pm for a brief get-together? We can meet up at a local grocery store, work with our dogs near the entrance/exit ( no doubt there will be no robberies during this time..lol ) and perhaps a short walk and coffee?? afterwards...
So, just want to put it out there.....sorry for the lack of notice, but no doubt that spring is here, this may turn into a weekly, or at least bi-weekly event.
I was thinking of the Food Basics at Wonderland/Commisioners.....there's a Global Pet there also, and a Timmie's......and the entrance way is partially covered in case of rain. But...I'm open to suggestions.....

Good morning....it's COLD outside...brrrr...the wind chill must be -10C, and my ears were soooo cold from my walk this morning with Kazi. When we came home, my ears were so cold, yet she couldn't wait to head into the back yard. What a girl.
As for Monday, change of venue. We will meet at Springbank Park for our first walk. We have decided that 7 pm will be out meet time, and for those that want to hang out for a coffee afterward, there is always a Tim's or Starbucks nearby. We will meet at The Guy Lombardo Museum/The Rowing Club entrance off of Wonderland Road, and go from there. Please try to be there between 6:45-7 pm.
Hope to see a few people there....

Its nice out today, should be good for an evening walk. Have fun, bring some dogie treats and tell the dogs its from me...lol, I'm sure they'll understand.

It was a gorgeous night for a walk. We met everything on our walk.....people walking, roller blading, biking, running/jogging, other dogs walking, geese...good grief!
I was concerned about Kazi, but Thor was a calming effect on her. That doesn't mean she was perfect..HAH. She probably scared the s..t out of a couple of people that she barked at. but after all, she is a Doberman! lol. I couldnt' believe everything we saw....I was tired after our walk. There were so many distractions for us to work thru......I'm looking forward to next week's walk.

So....that being said, I can't make Tuesday April 30, or Thursday May 2......but I'm good either Monday or Wednesday. Springbank park was a great place to walk......we walked along the Thames, and it was pretty cool to see the golfers across the river playing at Thames Golf.
Looking forward to meeting more people next week

I will likely be in London sometime in May to visit "the Parents" so Quin and I would love to join you for one of your walks.
Let you know when I firm up the dates but it will be during the week..not on a weekend.

So, next get-together is Monday May 6 @ 6:45-7 pm..park at the Civic Gardens parking lot, and we will walk from there. It was a gorgeous night....we met at Springbank park and this time we went the other way tonight, heading into downtown London, and didn't come across any geese ( lol ), but lots of roller bladers ( including Adam who took Thor out with him for a little skate ), dogs, bicycles, walkers, wheelchairs....lots of distractions along the way....even a squirrel made an appearance. The ever-calm Thor was once again "chilled"...that dog is so calm it's amazing. He is a great ambassador, and truly has a wonderful personality. Lydia, you are a lucky lady!

What a beautiful night for a walk tonight. We are still hanging around Springbank Park, and it is great for us with all of the distractions that are there to practice our obedience WHILE all of the world is passing us by....and now, Kazi and Dante are passed out cold sleeping on the floor for the past hour and a bit. It was a great walk....I forget what a lovely park it is.
We meet again next Monday night again at 7pm, this time parking at the base of the Guy Lombardo Museum parking lot....
