1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Chris, Kelly, Tika, and Ripley have invaded Maryland, and it's definitely pandemonium in the house
Everyone loves Shadow, Lulu hates everyone, and Ghost has made Tika her bitch as evidenced below:

Ghost has seriously not stopped humping Tika. It's hilarious. Here are a bunch of pictures from this evening, Ghost and Tika have been going bananas, while Rip and Shadow have been more chill.

Fun! And I agree with Ashleigh! Shadow is huge! Bigger than I pictured her, anyways. Looks like everyone is having a good time. Juneau is jealous of your pool - she looooves to swim.

We had a blast! Can't thank Meredith and Aaron enough for setting this all up, and putting us up and opening their house to us . Kelly and I were exhausted... but we had a lot of fun.
Shadow is awesome... So loving, gentle, and playful... truly a great pup. Tika was smitten by her for the first night we were there and just followed her around everywhere. She assaulted me with love on numerous occasions.
After that however Ghost and Teek were thick as thieves, if one thief humped the other on a constant basis. They wrestled most of the day and any time they weren't they were sleeping. It was great and they adored one another...
It got to the point where Kelly and I would wake up in the morning and attempt to sneak downstairs as quietly as possible, so as not to wake the house up. Strangely, no matter how quiet we were every time we opened our bedroom door ghost was sitting in front of it wagging her tail as if to say:
"Can Tika come out to play please?"
I had loads of fun with Lulu . We played Keep away most of the weekend with what ever ball she seemed to want at any given time. I found it highly entertaining and pretty much giggled every time it looked like she was finally going to give the ball back to me, only to turn her head at the last second and complain at me for reaching for it .
All the Botnicks were awesome (Furry or not) and it was great to finally meet them all, and it was a great weekend all around. All the girls got along fine, Even Ripley who decided to just give herself space and sleep by the front door most of the time . She's such an old crusty fart .
The H2M2 was loads of fun, and we wish we could go again.... Seeing that many huskies in one spot was so much fun for us... The mud pit in the middle of the run just made it all the better.... Ghost and Shadow were covered head to tail.
Lastly, you all need to go to work with Meredith at least once.... She is such a Rock Star!!!!! Kelly and I had a blast watching all the kids stumble over themselves when she walked by but in all seriousness that academy, and the town of Annapolis itself is breath taking.
So thanks Again to Mere, Aaron, and my Rhode Island Friend with the "Sick Flow". It was a great weekend, and we both had a lot of fun... Now if only we could find away to do something like that without a 10+ hour drive
~Chris~
ETA - Kelly has all the pics she took on her phone... I'm sure a couple will find their way onto the forum sooner or later

Yeah, she's a grumpy butt. She isnt the most social pup, she enjoyed herself though. She only growled a few times when someone tried to mount her at the park, other than that did really well.
I have to say I snapped that photo, I didnt realise at the time that they were holding hands....lol

BAAHHH... I wish this summer weren't so nuts and that you guys could have come here. Next summer we have NO WEDDINGS. And I'm going to check out this dog park in Clifton Park. Perhaps if I have tags for our dogs, we can bring other dogs?
Glad you guys made it happen! Next year, count me in!
