It's time for the Nor-Cal crew to once again invade the Mill Valley Dog Park.
Let's shoot for Saturday, June 12th at 11:00AM and pawty till the cow's come home!!!
We have several new Tripawds in our area and we would love to meet you.
Come out and have a great time watching Cemil and Maggie cruise around and make new friends! It will do your heart and mind good to watch all the dogs running, playing and having a ball. Plus, we 2 legged types always talk about the pawrents who didn't come that day, tacky, but fun!
Come out and watch how many tennis balls and treats Shelby the P.P. winds up with.
Come out and watch Tani keep us all in line.
Come out and see how big Cemils front paw is, he really is the gentle giant.
It's a great dog park and we always have a ball…plus, we need to make sure that the park is up to snuff so when Bernie Bin Laden and Linda (along with their pawrents) come all the way up from So.Cal. on July 10Th, everything will be ready.
Shelby will bring the communal water bowl and water jug, we'll all bring our camera's and I swear I'm going to attempt to take some movies. How can such a small camera have so many instruction manuals?
See ya later!!!!
We'll be there...maybe at 11. At least by 12!
I'll try to be on time--really!

Bernie says, “HELL YEAH!”
We'll be there, barring any unforeseen complications like the one that happened this morning. Bernie got hold of a ballpoint pen yesterday and promptly ate it. Di discovered its shredded remains when she came home from work, then spent a fun-filled night watching Bernie have diarrhea and puke up bits of pen and rubber band (no idea where he got that) on the bed. I'm working a midnight shift at the moment, so I missed out on all the fun. I came home this morning and Bernie felt better, but just to be safe I took him to the vet for x-rays. $250 later, our vet said his stomach was clear, aside from a large helping of cat food the little schmuck ate this morning when my back was turned. So if we can keep any other foreign objects out of him, we'll be there.
Unless I throttle the little bastard first…
And Linda definitely can’t wait. If enough other dogs show up, then Bernie might actually leave her alone for a while and quit trying to steal all her toys.
Great pictures. Glad I'm not the only one who feels like throttling his dog sometimes!

oh my gosh great pics and story!! I howled....of course we feel like throttling them!!! sometimes.
I was even thinking of coming cuz I think maybe it is closer than I think but I can't this month...that is the day I have to attend a wedding reception for the guy who owned the wolves - darn it...maybe I can get them to change the date of their wedding? ya think?
I talked to my massage person and she seemed to think I might be able to get there without too much trouble...I am very directionally challenged. So the only concern would then be my truck...but I guess I can have triple A tow me home!!
Maybe next month!
Oh that's a hoot! Look at how cute Bernie has grown to be! Hey dad, we around here save the $250 and use the peroxide method! One tablespoon and GOOD BYE stomach contents!

She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Bernie seems to be no worse for wear after a day or two of truly horrendous diarrhea. Being a typical puppy, he chews on everything in sight, and he's especially fond of the bark chips in our backyard planter boxes. He eats so much wood I keep expecting him to grow leaves out of his ears.
In any event, we can't wait for July! I'm bringing my good camera this time so I can get some extra sharp shots of our dogs in action. See you all there!
Cemil and I will be there. Maybe we'll bring Mujde too.

Finally someone will see Major! He's a mystery dog that lurks in the shadows of the blog world!
