Flick_Mac Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Absolutely take the piccies - I can email you the full size versions if you want better quality pics. Most of the rest of mine were pretty boring swimming ones... I managed to get a few out of the water too which I was happy with. Phoenix reminds me so much of Louie as a puppy... she moves like him and interacts with other dogs like he did as a pup.... ahhh it took me back! Shihtzu fan I used a horse lunge lead (I think K&P did too)... you can get them from produce stores/saddleries. They're great for when you don't 100% trust the dog as there's something to grab as they go running past! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your a legend. Haha I call her my springbok because she bounces around so much! Yep got mine from HorseLand for $15, its 8 metres long so heaps of room it was great for the security at the start of the meet but was able to let her off at the end. Watch out they get up speed though, I swear she almost broke her neck at one stage when she reached the end of the lead at full speed and came to a sudden stop!

Kitt Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hi everyone, I would love to attend Brisbane meets with my greyhound, Lucy. However, due to a medical condition, I don't drive. If there are any meets held near to where I live (Mt Gravatt East) I could get a cab there (Brisbane cabs take dogs). For meets further away, though, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to collect us? Naturally, I would give you money for your petrol and time. Perhaps people could PM me if they think they might consider giving me a lift to any Brisbane events? I would really like to be part of the DOL social community but I feel quite restricted by the fact that I can't drive. On another note - those photos of the dogs playing the water are lovely. Looks like they had a great time. Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they had a great time. Andy. We'll keep you in mind Andy. Is Lucy ok travelling in the backseat with a male dog? If anyone is sitting at home bored today, I'm heading to Booker Place dog park at Bellbowrie around 5. It's huge, fully-fenced, agility equipment there, and plenty of parking. It's not much notice, so I don't expect anyone to come, but thought I'd offer anyway. I've PM'd Flick_Mac and Scarlett Dog, but I don't think Scarlett is online today. I was offline last night so didn't see the msg about a playdate until this morning. Anyway, PM me if you want my mobile number, or any other details etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitt Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 We'll keep you in mind Andy. Is Lucy ok travelling in the backseat with a male dog? Hi Jadesamara, Thanks very much for your reply. Lucy has lived and travelled with male and female dogs with no problems, so I anticipate that she'll be fine. I get a bit sad that I can't make it to meets due to not being able to drive (medication condition), so thanks for keeping me in mind. The next Brisbane meet is happening in early April? Regards, Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Dandybrush, Thanks for the offer - it means a lot to me. Next time there's a Brisbane meet, I might PM you and / or Jadesamara to check whether a lift is possible. I have taken my greyhound in cabs several times. The first time I did it, I asked the person on the phone to send a cab that allows dogs. She said "We can't put that in the request; we can only notify the drivers of a pick-up location." So when the cab arrived, I asked whether the dog could come too. The driver said it was fine, as long as I put a blanket on the seat. So, no, you don't need to ask for a cab that allows dogs. I've used cabs to take my dog to the vet, and when I moved house from one side of Brisbane to the other. One greyhound plus one cat came with me in the cab. I've never had a cab driver refuse. Kitt.

So speaking of the April meet are we going to try and do a westside meet? And if so does anyone have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved to Mt Gravatt East in December and have been to the park only a few times. Thanks for the offer of a lift. Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
