Brennan's Mum Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Just wondering if any Adelaide DOLer's have been to a Open Day before? There is one coming up in September which looks interesting... http://www.dogssa.com.au/Website/index.php?id=53&level=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravyk Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 We went along to Vets and Pets in the Park last year and the dogs had a ball! The dogs enjoyed themselves and there were lots on people and stalls to talk to and visit. Well worth going! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskedaway Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Oh that looks like fun. SACA Park is in Kilburn, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brennan's Mum Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Oh that looks like fun. SACA Park is in Kilburn, isn't it? Yep I would like to take Brennan, but she may not cope with it ( she is reactive) and I don't want to risk placing her in that situation with a lot of new dogs on leads and noise/ people yet.

Sayly Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Yep, was on the Terrier Club stand last open day, looking at getting involved (or running if no one else is) the Aussie Shepherd stand for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskedaway Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Just looking at the flier and there's a comp for "Smoochiest Pooch". Akira could totally win that one (said as she's licking my hand as I type on the keyboard). There's also: Cutest Canine Mutts only a Mother Could Love Dog and Owner Lookalike (I reckon my neighbour should enter this!) Child's Best Friend Golden Oldies Best Trick Best Groomed Best Dressed Sounds like it should be a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tay. Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 I went to the one in 2008 Won't be going this year though, might have a trial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokkie Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Oh that looks like fun. SACA Park is in Kilburn, isn't it? Yep I would like to take Brennan, but she may not cope with it ( she is reactive) and I don't want to risk placing her in that situation with a lot of new dogs on leads and noise/ people yet. I went a previous year and took Ringo with me, I am going again this year but without him..... even though all the dogs are on lead, there were so many I could not keep an eye on all of them, I stressed the whole time that he would snap at another dog. That took all the fun out of it..... I will be there again Will be taking some of the Shar Pei Rescue Australia dogs out as from the last one we found the perfect home for one of our dogs in care Any Dolers interested in meeting up at a certain time , possibly around lunch time?? Miss Squish, I will definitely see your for some Shar Pei hugs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will see you there Miss Squish ! I'll bring Madeline along, I reckon she'll win at least one of those competitions that whiskedaway mentioned!

Bully Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Pele and I will be there with the Bull Terrier Club. Pele won "Best Tricks" last time ;) :D Then we came "Runner-up in Show" to Ness who had won "Best Groomed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskedaway Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I still reckon Akira can win smoochiest pooch (said after I've just spent the last five minutes getting kisses after she and OH got back from her walk) We shall be there after obedience. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravyk Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 WA- I think Spot will give Akira a run for your money! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskedaway Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Haha, you're on! What's the bet Akira will get stage fright? I know for sure she won't kiss anyone other than people she knows though. :/ One of her first commands that she was taught the week after we got her was "kisses". :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't stop licking you until you get sick of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskedaway Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Akira is the same. She'll stand there, licking my jeans or my hand and won't stop until I tell her it's enough. Even then she'll still be trying to lick me when I'm not looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayly Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I will be there on the Aussie Shepherd stand but likely won't have any of my own dogs as they are all in season! Silly things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 The MDBA were all set to go and one of our members had paid money out of her own pocket for banners etc then they decided we werent allowed to have a stand. They have decided that the MDBA is an alternative to them - Pretty amazing when all we do is encourage more people to join them , that we dont keep a registry and we dont hold dogs shows. We have challenged it but they still say we are not allowed in even though they know one of our breeder members is a DogsNSW director! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say Dogs SA's handling of anything MDBA related was in extremely poor form. I email about setting a stall up [for the PACERS] and they were really helpful until I mentioned what the stall was about, then [surprise surprise] I had no contact back from them.
