well the thread on rolo proves how much we all care about these death row dogs and what i was thinking was to get hubby 3 red dogs to put up a sticky for fundraising for the death row dogs.

one thing i noticed when the whole forum pulled together for the birth of candys pups is that alot of people live close by to one another and i think if we put our heads together we can think of some regional fundraising to help these poor dogs get the second chance they deserve.

if there is one thing i know about this forum is that whilst we may not all agree all the time when it is needed we all pull together. i just think it would be good to help people like cazzajack who do such wonderful work for these dogs.

what do ya think.

This is soooooo weird because i was thinking the other day about posting on the forum suggestions wether we could run an annual sponsored dog walk (or similar) to raise funds for a chosen charity.

I wondered if it could be organised regionally but wasn't brave enough to post it.

Good idea about the thread.

what about a national petforums meetup - with an overnight camp for those travelling? We could then do all sorts of daft stuff like - fun agility, obstacle course, doggy egg n spoon race, 3 legged (humans like in old school sports days) dog walk, doggy cstume competition etc etc etc each thing to raise money for nominated charities?

oh i dunno, i'm rambling but i like the idea of a big meetup to have fun (funday) and raise money at the same time!

i think we can try and do both. between us we can all try and do our bit and the fundraising can only help too.

COOOOOL

I put forward Wicksteed Park as a venue.

Wicksteed Park, The Events Field corporate Venue Northamptonshire

sounds good to me although my dogs would eat the eggs so it would just be a spoon race lol.

looks good to me!

wicksteed looks great. is it just a venue or can we camp there too. i reckon a PF meet up would be great.
mmmmm wonder how wicksteed would feel about 100 odd dogs taking over there venue lol

on the site it says caravan and camping at £12 a night

they also have a funfair type thing too to keep any sprogs entertained - definatly thumbs up from me!
