  • Forgot to add this is at Red Sunset Park, in Gresham, Oregon.

  • Have a great show …... wish I could be there.. but alas... I have to work... (so I can pay the electic bill for the Air conditioner during the heat wave..., even the B's say that 109 is too hot!!)...
    Interesting that I do find that the hot weather (extreme heat) is really tough on my elders...

  • Kathy… I will be there with Katie Campbell.... I look forward to seeing you there. Should be a great day for it. :)

    Hi Tasia. I see that it has been a couple of years since you posted but we are in the Lehigh Valley and have a Basenji mix who would love a play date. He is only 3 years old though, so you know.

    This is the lovely picture of basenji silence after a day at the dog park. [image: atthepark.jpg] We had a great meet! Anne and Don brought their 3 ( Nikki- tri fem, Topper- black male, and Eddie- tri male). Beth brought her 2 (Bella-tri fem and Frank- red male), a new couple brought their 3 (newborn baby, Eshi - red fem, and a 5yr old german shepard named Molly just introduced to the family,) and I had my two (Caesar- red male, and Cairo - brindle male). We also met out of the blue, a couple who had adopted a brindle female that was named Dreammaker. She was very timid, but had fun meeting the pack. There were crazy basenji runs, squirell chases and the normal chaos and fun that comes with a pack! We had a great time. Hopefully pictures will follow.

    Good job to all the workers and planners - these things don't go on by magic but lots of hard work. I wish I could've been there but as we all know "life is what happens when we're making other plans." Congrats to all winners - and congrats to all who participated - after all you can't win if you don't play. Thanks for playing!
