    Drat! Let me know next time you are down this way. We have a nice 5 acre park with shade trees, great for the dogs to run around.

    Mac Pack, I see here that everyone meets on Sunday at 11 am… which park? I'd love to show off my Lola... she is a showgirl after all.

    We were at Walsingham Park yesterday and there was a "little" dog and "large" dog fenced area. The little dog area was empty, and Lola told me that she WAS a large dog, lol...

    We were there for about an hour, and she outran all of those wimpy big dogs. She's still tuckered out! :)

    Patty - we meet at West Park on Occident, just north of Hillsborough in Tampa. We get together in the large dog park, on the left side way down after you get through the gates. They do love to run with their own kind!

    Google Hillsborough County Parks, West Park Dog Park, they have good directions!
    Some folks get there as early as 9:30 but we are slugs on Sunday morning and rarely get there before 11!

    We met at the pet expo, look forward to meeting Lola and seeing you again!

    Poor Kismet still can't get Bear to play with her and kept making me get up when I was getting ready for bed (didn't know if her pacing my room was a potty call or not!). I'm thinking I may try to go to that new Winter Springs dog park later today if I'm not too tired to tire her out some. Anyone in Orlando interested in going? If not today maybe we can plan another outing.

    Kismet visited Hound Ground Dog Park today. It took a lil bit for her to get accustomed to all the other doggies but after being mistaken for a Rhodesian Ridgeback mix and some growling she was running along like she was part of a pack. I'll bring my camera next time and share some photos! :)

    I was 'surfing' to find out a local area where there are other B's. I live in Crystal River and would like to find out if you still meet on Sundays???:confused:

    See my post above, a group of us meet every Sunday at West Park dog park in Tampa, we have been meeting every Sunday for 10 years, except in REALLY bad weather. Google Hillsborough County parks for directions. We only had 14 there today, I think it was 17 or 18 last Sunday. We don't e-mail each other about who is coming, we just go if we can, 10"30 till 11 and we often stay till after 2 pm.

    It'll be a lil while now til I can make it. Kismet caught kennel cough somewhere (vet says Petsmart, dog park or doggie daycare) :( Plus who knows when I'll get a day off on a Sunday at my new job. Hopefully she'll be better by next month and I can start bringing her out again. :)

    @antigone said in Basenji Puppies in Qatar?: @debradownsouth I have a friend who lost 2 Austrailian Sheepdogs on a Delta Flight from LAX to JFK. Death in the Cargo Hold is more common than you think. Nope, they actually keep statistics. It is precisely as common as I think. Some Airlines treat Pets as Luggage and that is not right. So I must disagree with you regarding long Flights. The Vets recommend SEDATION for any pet that goes on a Plane. Nowhere to start with "treat as luggage" because what does that mean to you? How do you know? Is putting in cargo your idea of "treat as luggage" or is it something like abusive or uncaring? As for sedation on flying... you need new vets and to report those who tell you that. For anyone who thinks you are right, below is information based on facts: According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), sedating cats or dogs during air travel may increase the risk of heart and respiratory problems. Except in unusual circumstances, veterinarians should not dispense sedatives for animals that are to be transported. https://www.avma.org/public/PetCare/Pages/Traveling-with-Your-Pet-FAQs.aspx Also ""Q: Should I tranquilize or sedate my pet for long flights? A: It is recommended that you DO NOT give tranquilizers to your pet when traveling by air because it can increase the risk of heart and respiratory problems. Short-nosed dogs and cats sometimes have even more difficulty with travel. Visit our FAQs about short-nosed dogs and air travel for more information. Airlines may require a signed statement that your pet has not been tranquilized prior to flying. According to Dr. Patricia Olsen with the American Humane Association, "An animal's natural ability to balance and maintain equilibrium is altered under sedation and when the kennel is moved, a sedated animal may not be able to brace and prevent injury.""" FDA https://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/ResourcesforYou/AnimalHealthLiteracy/ucm352635.htm Sedatives: While sedatives may make your pet seem less stressed during car trips, these medications also have a tendency to dull the senses and lessen your pet’s ability to react to the environment, which can be dangerous in an emergency. When traveling by car or by plane, avoid giving your pet any type of sedative. If you think Champ or Freckles really needs a sedative to travel, talk to your pet’s veterinarian before your trip. Airlines: https://www.united.com/ual/en/us/fly/travel/animals/procedures.html United supports the American Veterinarian Medical Association’s recommendation to not accept animals that have been sedated. United will not knowingly accept a dog or cat that has been sedated and accepts no liability for the death or sickness of an animal caused by any drug. PetAir UK Q. Can I sedate my pet before they fly? No. No and No. Those clever folks in the USA did a study on deaths of animals after flying and veterinary grade sedatives were implicated in around half of them, so it is banned. Secondly, there are no drugs which will work for the full length of the journey and no-one can guarantee how they will work with the air pressure changes and if they make your pets excitable or too sedated we don’t want that to happen. https://www.petairuk.com/faq-page#t16n175 I could post more but state by state vet assoc say the same thing.

    No I do not as I am in OH. I just monitor Craigslist when I have time and post the ads. I did not notice the ear tip missing. In cold weather climates, if a dog is outside in the cold, the ears can get messed up. We took in a rescue years ago that had this problem as it was somewhat neglected and left outside too long in the cold in OH. It seems like we used to have much colder winters back then. Jennifer

    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
