Minnesota Doodles

[Elizabeth]

I'm not sure how many of you live in Minnesota, or near Minnesota, but I thought it would be fun to have a get together this summer. Now that my Sophie can see.. I think she would have a blast making some friends.
I saw the Doodle Romp that they put together for Illinois, and thought it looked like a ton of fun. Is anyone interested in doing something like that hear in the Minnesota/Wisconsin area?

[Denise, Winnie, and AngelAbby]

That sounds great! Where in Minneapolis?

[Abby and Raya]

They are in New Hope. We will be in town during the week of April 5th.

Clyde and I would love a Minnesota Doodle Romp. I know several other doodle families and will incite them as well. (I've asked them to join this group but no one has yet ....) We live near Moorhead but can also gladly take a road trip, unless it conflicts with our annual summer motocycle trip. No, Clyde stays home with grandma, he does not ride.

We are picking up our new rescue Doodle (we hope) on January 10! Count us in!

Would you prefer a on the leash park or off of the leash dog park?
There is a large park with beautiful trails called Bunker Lake Park, right here in Coon Rapids/Andover.
There is a dog park in Coon Rapids, Bloomington, and Burnsville but I am not sure of the size, parking, or if a permit is required. As of now, Sophie will need to stay on a leash.

. Send me your suggestions as well..

I would prefer a leash too I think - could play that one by ear. I really can't see Abby running off when there are other dogs to play with tho.

[Chris & Boys]

I think that Elm Creek Park Reserve has a dog park, but I am not positive.

[Sherree]

yes they so have a off leash park there is also one near St. Michael along the crow river, I like this park the best. I used both parks many times. If you don't have a seaonal pass it's only like $5 a day to use the park....WELL worth it when you travel with your doodles as I do. I visit the cites every month and take the dogs to the St. Michale location each morning, this makes the rest of the day go alot smoother.

[Elizabeth]

OK guys, lets vote on a month to do this..

[Denise, Winnie, and AngelAbby]

I'm open to any time. I'm pretty flexible...

[Chris & Boys]

If you are thinking about right away, for a Saturday, starting the 2nd weekend in March would work best. My boys will be done with basketball by then, I think. The first two weekends in April are bad for me too.
