DC area mini-basenji meetup Sat. Mar 8, 2008

Basenji Meetups & Events
  • This is short notice, but a few of us have made plans to meet up at the "Little Rascal Doggie Day Care" tomorrow, Sat. March 8 from 10am-12pm. They have a 7000 sq ft indoor dog park (and it's supposed to be a rainy mess here tomorrow). I think we have 10-12 basenjis and a couple of b-mixes planned to attend at the moment with several others invited. I just decided it might be fun if there were other folks in the area that wanted to join us as well.

    They do charge a $7 fee to use the dog park on weekends. And they require proof that your dog is up-to-date on some basic shots (see the website). For me this means I carry a copy of the 1-sheet health report from my vet when we go – no big deal.

    So maybe we'll see you there.

  • How fun!!! :D Don't forget to take some pics & share with us PLEEEEAAASE :D

  • Oh, how fun! If I knew in advance I might have driven up for the day!

  • Oh no, I hope you decide to have another one of these. My little girl hasn't had her rabies shot yet. I live straight up 15 and go to Walter Reed a couple of times a year so I know where Georgia Ave is. Is this place inside the belt way?

  • It is inside the Beltway … at the intersection of Georgia and Missouri (a couple of blocks after Military Road becomes Missouri)

  • Yeh, if I had known, we might have made it!! Hope you do it again and post your pics from the meet up!!

    Hi, Yes we have a 10 month old basenji in the South Philly area. Would love to see him running around with another basenji, but have yet to see one in the local dog parks. How old is your boy?

    I'm so sorry. I didn't realize you had responded. I thought I'd get an email. Zoey is definately NOT good off leash. It would be great to find a fenced area…I know there is a dog park (with a small dog area) near me, but I don't know how you feel about driving. (I've commuted for years, so I'm used to it). I could probably call Bear Mountian the park to see if they allow dogs. I'm working tomorrow, but I'll try to find out on Tuesday. Also, there is some sort of an event in Woodstock, NY (beautiful town), sponsored by the Rip Van Winkle Basenji Club. I am totally new to all of this stuff, so I'm not sure what goes on there, but here is a link....I thought you might be interested. If I'm not working I may go just to check it out. http://www.rvwbasenjiclub.org/June.24th.Match.html

    I'm moving to Lakewood, Ohio, about 40 minutes north of Copley, in two weeks!! There are TONS of basenji people in Ohio, spread out all over the state. I've noticed there is a dog park in Lakewood, obviously that's a bit of a drive for you, but perhaps we could get together for a play date! I've also been told that Ohio has a lot of good dog parks, and I know there are a lot of parks and forest trails and stuff to take your dogs to. I have two brindle girls. This thread has pictures of Callie http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=9968 plus a couple of pictures here http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=8363 and you can also look through my gallery to see pictures of Lola.

    We will try to keep the 6th open. Depending on how things go next weekend we might shoot to go done on Sunday.
