Hi Everyone:
Cliffy is looking forward to meeting you as our schedules will be timed right. Are any of you in McHenry Cty. by chance? In between it would be nice to meet a few of you that could be there since we are in Crystal Lake. We love to go to doggie daycare places to socialize. Maybe in the Spring I could see if we could meet at K-9Playtime in Mundelein, it's a great place, lots of room to run in the ring with still space left over for all of the Pug moms to chat. Let me hear from a few of you..........

Hi Marie! So glad you joined! Crystal lake is a bit far for the normal Saturday meetup but there are a few other opportunities that you might be able to attend. Today in fact is the annual Northern Illinois Pug Rescue PugJam which is held in Rockford.

I'm sorry I didn't the group know sooner, it's a great time and I've gone to several. Here are the details for today:Pug Jam

Also we always move our February meetup to coincide with NIPRA's Valenpug's Party in February which is held at K-9 Playtime. Many of us are regulars at K-9 - I take my pugs to agility class there. :-) Our November meetup will be moved by one week and we will have a Pugoween Meetup where all the pugs wear their costumes to the park. It's always a blast.

I also take my pugs to the K-9 Playtime Howloween Party, it's a benefit for rescue. This year it's being held on Sunday, October 25th. There are the details: Howloween Party

I was busy last weekend at an agility trial with my pugs so I could not make the Central Park party. In fact I'm not sure if I can make today's meetup but I'm going to do my best. I have an agility fun run with Aoife (her first AKC trial is next Sunday), a wedding shower and a few other things that I must do today. But I'll do my best.
