Hi,everyone! I haven't posted on here before. We spent the afternoon at Paws in the Park and had a blast. Only saw one other Corgi and turns out we know the owner! He is one of my child's teacher. Izzy loved seeing all the other dogs. She wore herself out and slept all the way home! I hope we have another Corgi group meet up soon. We haven't been able to go to one yet, but after seeing Izzy have so much fun, we will try our hardest to go to the next one!
Awwwwwwwwwwwww, Sarah thanks for sharing! We saw 5 Corgis on Sunday while we were there for about 2 hours. We didn't expect to see any so we were excited. Told some people about mycorgi as always. Husband says I should print business cards as much as I try to recruit new Houston area Corgi owners :)
I live in Alvin so I don't know anything about the dog parks in Houston. Hope someone will give directions! Alvin Parks Department will be hosting Bark in the Park sometime in May, This is the second year of this event. It is an event to raise money for a new animal control facility and dog park. As of now we have no dog park. I will post more info later. Hope everyone can come!!
Hello corgi lovers! I just found MyCorgi.com and am excited to see other owners crazy about their corgis! We live in the Friendswood area and hope to meet other corgi families sometime!
Welcome, Kara! That's my daughter's name. I live in Alvin so we are almost neighbors! Hope we have a meet up soon. Izzy and I have never been to one. We would like to meet other Corgi families, too.
Thanks for the welcome Ann and Izzy. Alvin is where I grew up! We go to the area every week for Agility class. I look forward to meeting you sometime soon I hope!
It is called "Dogs Need a Job" and that definitely describes my dog. We are not that great at it (yet) but she loves going. It is b/t 517 and Hwy. 6. I am not sure if it is Alvin, Dickinson or Santa Fe? We are the only corgi in our group so you should join us!
Hey guys! We are looooong overdue for a meetup. Our boys would love to hang with some fellow shorties on the 28th. You guys vote on a park. "Have Corgis & Camera - Will travel"
We've met at Bill Archer (West Houston), Baytown Bark Park, Danny Jackson (Inner Loop), Pearland, we have met all over. We try to rotate so the members that aren't close get a chance to participate. The best turnouts are always at Danny Jackson, we've had some serious shorty packs going there! If members vote, we go wherever the most votes are for.
Is this going on the 28th still? My wife and I have been wanting to bring George and Newman to one of these for a while now...but unfortunately we are traveling with them for Memorial Weekend :( Not to worry though, we will certainly make the next meetup if date is decided for 28th.
Looks like Danny Jackson may be the winner, please let me know what time you guys would like to meet so I can send a message to the group. The earlier I send the message, the number of Corgis that might make it goes up :)
Oh I wish Izzie could join everyone! Unfortunately she's having possession issues with, well, everything and we haven't been able to go to a dog park in a while.
I hope the meet up is still on because sadly, it is all I have been looking forward to all week. We will be there at 9:AM and can't wait to meet any other corgis!
Sorry guys, I didn't see the messages until this morning. We are getting ready now and will be there at 9. And on a side note there is nothing wrong with looking forward to Corgi meetups - any event that can plaster a smile on your face like them has got to be an awesome thing!!
We had a great time at the meet up! Daisy was pooped out from all the barking!! I didn't get a great group picture but I will post the ones I have under my page. You guys have some of the CUTEST CORGIS!!!
Yes! Let's have a meet up soon! Johann and I have never been to a dog park.. the only one up in Kingwood has a lot of restrictions... he's not 6 months yet nor has he been fixed, so we can't go. You also have to register, provide vet records, and pay dues... Are there any rules/registration/dues for the other dog parks in Houston?
I go to the Bear Creek dog park on Hwy 6 every weekend and they are pretty care free. They just ask you don't leave your dogs there un-attended and to keep a copy of your vaccination records in case there is an incident ( I have yet to see anything happen). It is a very large dog park with a gated track in back. It's a lot of fun!
Hey guys! I'm really late getting the photos from the meetup off my camera and uploaded. I hope to get to them this week.
Anyway, time to start planning this month's meetup. If we are trying for once a month, we're looking at Saturday, June 25th. Please put in your vote for location & time, I'd like to send a group invite by next week.
June 25 sounds good for me.. I don't have a preference for location because we haven't been to any dog parks before. Time also doesn't matter to me, so long as we aren't out too long during the heat of the day. Oh Houston summers... But yes, we are really looking forward to our first meet up with you all :)
Bentley and I can't go on the 25th :( Bentley is getting neutered that Friday before so I dont think he will be up for it. If ya'll decide to change, the morning of the 18th would be better for us. :)
I can make the 25th but will miss Bentley! :) I'm pretty open on locations too but vote for any dog park with a pond for the pups. 9:AM seemed to work well last time. It will probably already be 90 degrees by then but maybe we can all sneak in the pond!
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.
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. ;)
