The more Vs the merrier!

KB87 I have been scouring the forum for months looking for a V meetup in Michigan. Yay! Not positive I'll be able to make the June 1st meetup though. Boo. But hey, maybe we can organize another? I know there are a few other Michiganders on here but haven't seen them in awhile. I have been absent myself for a bit. What is this Facebook group you mentioned? I would love to join it for future meetups.
CHANGE OF LOCATION: the first meet up will now be held at the Mill Pond Park on Sunday June 1st at 12pm. There are no permits or fees required. I do suggest bringing towels for your V(s) as there is access to water.
I just checked out the facebook page and they have changed the location to a park with no fee. Still don't know if I will make the June 1st meetup, but I am so happy that I can get together with other V owners in the future.

I agree about the other dogs. Most of them are poorly behaved. Their owners too. There are plenty of horror stories on here about dog parks. We usually frequent state land fields and trails as well however, a lot of people like the security of fences. Personally, we trained our girl extensively on recall work. We have called her off deer many times. But there is always a risk. These dogs do have minds of their own (which is why we love them so much) as we all know. We take that into consideration and try to minimise the risk as much as possible. If we think it is going to be a high risk day we'll put the "buzz" collar on her. I am looking into a gps collar because I would prefer that. Any good suggestions out there?
All this being said I am willing to endure the "dog park" a few times just to meet other V owners.
