Our corgi crew can make it June 28th. It'll be fun.
Paco loves every dog and person he meets (unless the other dog shows aggression towards him). Erma is a bit timid still. Maybe by the 28th she'll be ready to play with fellow corgis. Either way she LOVES going for walks and just being outside.

well, Maury just loves other dogs, so Barkley and Maury will get along just fine. Maury is more like a floppy stuffed animal.....he is overly friendly and trusting of everyone.

I'm really excited about this!! Barkley has never actually spent time with another corgi since we brought him home. There's an adult corgi that we pass on the other side of a fence when we go for a walk, but I don't really count that because Barkley has only just seen him, not actually played. The river front is a very nice area to walk around, it's probably the safest part of Detroit.

count me in! Maury's going to look like a giant compared to the others since he's a mix!

OK then you don't have to wait until tomorrow. I looked it up online dogs ARE allowed on the river front, so game on! Does Sunday June 28th work for everyone? I'll find out more about parking.

The people unfamiliar with corgis is what I'm excited about too! Other people get so excited, which makes Barkley and I excited. Don't worry about Detroit being unsafe, the area where we would be walking is very heavily patrolled by police and border patrol. As far as parking I'm not sure. I'm glad you brought it up though because I can do some research tomorrow since I work in Detroit. I will also need to find out if we are even allowed to walk our dogs there and if so what restrictions there are. I don't think I've actually ever seen anyone walking their dogs along the river but hopefully that doesn't mean its not allowed. I don't remember ever seeing any signage restricting it. As far as a date to do this my wife and I were thinking the last Sunday in June 6/28. That is not set in stone yet though so if you want to do this and the date isn't going to work just say so. I'm not in Detroit today but I'll be there tomorrow and find out if we are actually allowed to walk the river front. If anyone knows about this already please let us know otherwise I'll be able to answer this tomorrow.

We're over in Ann Arbor and would like to come over for the River Walk. I haven't been in Detroit before though. I'd need some advice about where to park and ... sorry to say... what areas of Detroit to avoid.

It'll be very interesting with so many corgis! We can hardly go for a walk with just one corgi without being stopped at least 3 times by people wanting to pet him or ask what breed or to talk about corgis.

I'd be game for that!

Awesome! I'm sure there will be more interest too, just need wait for people to respond. I'm not good at waiting. I can just imagine the reaction people would have if dozens of corgis go for a walk down the river front. On a nice afternoon there can be quite a few people and lots of children. I'm excited to see what my Barkley would do at that fountain in front of the rencen. He doesn't enjoy getting wet for the most part but I have a feeling he'd go wild after that fountain.

Would anyone else be interested in having a group corgi walk? I was thinking it would be cool to do it along the River Walk in Detroit. There is an outdoor deli where I am sure we should be able to eat that has shaded tables. I'd really like to do a group walk nothing too formal and it doesn't even have to be in Detroit. Just wanted to throw the idea out there and see if there is interest. Let me know.
