| Forum Rules | 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. |

| In addition to my little Gulf Coast project, I will be back in IL with the dogs over New Years. I've already spoken to Mindy and she and I are planning a meet up (also with one of my friends from back home who I am trying to get to join the forum) on New Years Eve. Yes, it's a holiday, but it's pretty much the only day Mindy and I could meet. The meet up is going to be at the Urbana Park District dog park in Urbana, IL. The time is still up in the air but I'm shooting for noon-ish. Give me a shout if any of you are interested. Yes, I'm suddenly in a very organizational mood  _________________ Shadow's Blog Canine Hydrocephalus Support on Facebook "Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword.

| Boo, yeah I looked it up and you guys are something like 6 hours from my parents house which would put it at 8 hours to Urbana. One of these years I'll have to head north and we can find a place to meet in the middle  _________________ Shadow's Blog Canine Hydrocephalus Support on Facebook "Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword.

| That would be fun, but it would be about a 4.5 hour ride at least for me. I will think about it though. |

| I would totally go, but we are going back to Wisconsin for a week, leaving on the 30th of Dec. That's only an hour and a half away from us too! Stupid bad timing! |

One of these years yes, but I'm already taking a bunch of leave this year so I need to watch that. I really want to though! _________________ Shadow's Blog Canine Hydrocephalus Support on Facebook "Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword.

| Ok, so here's the plan. Meet at the Urbana dog park at noon, and play til the dogs are worn out. Christine, if you still think you can make it, would you be able to make it that early? I can adjust some, but Mindy has to be back in Farmer City by 4:00. Let me know and we can accomodate. Any other folks in the IL/WI/IN area, you are welcome to join in if you so desire. It is a $5 guest pass for the park, and I believe that's per dog. Hope to see a couple of you out there  _________________ Shadow's Blog Canine Hydrocephalus Support on Facebook "Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword.

| Ok, here are a few of the many pictures I took yesterday. Sorry it took so long, I fell asleep while they were uploading last night, er, this morning... Anyway, the girls all got along famously, even Lulu (mostly) That park was really nice too, very big and lots of seating for the humans. _________________ Shadow's Blog Canine Hydrocephalus Support on Facebook "Being the parent of a special-needs pet means living your life constantly poised on the edge of a double-edged sword.

| Ok, made the post and accidentally bumped the send button without the pictures. As I was trying to edit, the stupid power went out.

I'm a sucker for what I call the coyote dance pics, but geez the facial expressions on so many of the pictures were just awesome. Nice action shots. |
