We just got back from the Bay Area dog park and it has tons of trees for shade. We also met two corgis there and encouraged their owners to join MyCorgi.com so they could meet up with us in 2 weeks. There was no pond but all the nice shade will make up for it. I also read on a local dog site that there are some nearby eateries that are dog friendly if you eat on the patio. Here is the link: http://www.bark9.com/?Eateries If you go to one I would definitely call first. I vote for Bay Area too!

We're definitely up for the Pasadena dog park, it would give those from the opposite side a town to go to one closer to home.  My goal has always been to rotate parks!

 

I just posted some highlights from the 5-28 meetup in the discussion above titled "Meetup pictures".  If you want to see more there is a link to my flikr photostream at the bottom of the post :)

The dog park on Bay Area Blvd. in Pasadena may be what we want.  The Houston Area Dog park site says it has "lots of shade"  I have been to that park years ago before they put in a dog park and it does have lots of trees.

Ok, hubby & I scouted the Sugar Land park.  We went when it first opened & were a little disappointed because Houston has some pretty awesome parks.  We thought we would check it out since we haven't been back.  There have been improvements but there is still a pretty big lack of shade & there is no pond in the small dog park.  In the summer months shade is pretty important to us because we've found if we bring our lawn chairs & sit in the shade other owners will gravitate toward that area & we can sit & relax while the dogs play.  I would love to hear suggestions on parks with big shade trees (it's disappointing that most were clear cut so there aren't large trees).  I know Congressman Bill Archer has big shade trees but it might be too far for some.  We are open to other ares.  Does anyone know if the Woodlands parks have good shade?

I can't wait to meet all the new corgis and their peeps. I have never been to the Sugarland Memorial Park but it looks nice. It sounds like there is a nice pond too but it might be in the big dog area. I took Daisy to the Independence Dog Park in Pearland and there were no dogs in the little dog section so I threw her in with the big fellas.  :)  (I didn't really throw her.) There were some BIG dogs too! She actually did pretty well and didn't bark as much. Maybe she was afraid to tell off the big dogs! Anyway, Sugarland is fine with me. If anyone has been there let us know how it is.

Yoda wants to join also and this will be his first time too. Has anyone tried the Sugar Land dog park? Is this a good park? I think a dog park with a lot of shades would be great for everyone's corgis.

Awesome, I think we can make the 25th!  No suggestions for parks since this will be our first one, but we're certainly excited ;)

Pudge checked his social calendar and he's wide open for the morning of the 25th. We have no vote on any location since, well, we don't even know where any dog parks are! Pudge just requests that there be some shade, he's a little chocolate bar. ;)

I think we'll keep it for the 25th, just need votes on location. I think it's safe to say the time will be 8:30/9:00 to avoid the worst heat of the day.

Penny and Jet want to get back in on the action too! Is the meetup for sure on the 25th?  I can make sure I'm not working that morning.
