I didn't get as many pictures as I was planning. Elly is on restricted activity because of a hip injury so I spent most of my time standing still, hanging with her resting in the chariot, or sitting with her on my lap.
It was soooooo wonderful to finally get together again, see old friends and meet some new ones! We are planning to get back on our normal schedule with a fall meet up.
Simbah:
Nitro:
Diesel:
Elly:
Dusty watching Rosie:
And my favorite pic of the day: Jack reaching for ball with Rosie and Dusty waiting and Cindi supervising:
I didn't get any good pictures of new girl Riley or Simbah's sibling.

Karen! These are great pictures!!!
The way you captured Simbha's gait looks like she's almost floating. Really good angle👍
Love the way Nitro's gait is long and lanky and fluid. You did a great job of capturing g the dogs in motion.
And yeah, really cute picture of Rosie and Dusty wanting Jack to hurry up and throw the ball!
Diesel looks quite noble with the brilliant blue sky as his backdrop.
And oh my goodness, so sorry sweet Elly has a bum hip! Although I know she enjoyed being the Queen overseeing all events while on your lap😎
So happy to see everyone's photos. Treasured memories of Happy times with extended family
Get better sweet Elly👏 And thanks for posting these Karen
Hugs

WoW! Karen what terrific pictures! You captured the spirit of the gathering so nicely. Mind if I share them in a news blog post?
Everypawdy had a terrific time and yeah it's been way too long. Look at those hoppy dawgs, looks like they all got along and fun together. And the humans too!
There's a teeny chance we may be in the Bay Area during fall, and would love to join the fun!
Thanks so much for sharing this very special day in Tripawds history!

I forgot to say, be sure to start a new topic about Elly if you get a chance. I hope she is feeling better, and would like to know more about how she got hurt and what is/isn't working. Poor pup! Thanks for taking her so she could at least hang out.

Hi guys, welcome!
We would love to meet you and your pup- Reggie?
Also please consider posting your story so we can get to know you and your pup.
Keep an eye on this forum, Tripawds Parties, for the next announcement. We are talking about sometime in the fall to get back on our usual Spring/Fall schedule.

One week until our fall gathering!
Checked the weather, 70 degrees, partly cloudy, perfect for a gathering of TRIPAWDS and assorted quad-paws.
Next Saturday, 11AM, Mill Valley Dog Park.
Look forward to seeing everyone!
