We were there! It was a lot of fun! The location was okay- it was not fenced and very muddy, but the dogs had a blast. We ended up getting busted by the police because you're not supposed to have doggies off leash, but we were there for about an hour. I'd say there were probably 25 dogs. I think we're going to plan something out here in the suburbs soon, and I'll definitely let you know.

I've been so busy trying to finish up a research paper for one of my classes, so I haven't had too much time to plan! So thank you Shannon for forcing me! LOL! I'm super flexible, so is there anyone who wants to come who can't do a certain day? Do you guys want to do it on a Saturday? We could do the 22nd, 29th, or 6th of next month. I just want to give everyone enough time because if we do it at one of the DuPage county dog parks, then everyone would need to get a permit.

What do you guys think?

Yes, they do have daily permits. It's $5 if you are in DuPage, $15 if you're out of county. That link shows the permit information

Also, Lisa, Chesterpal, everybody else that is interested, would you guys private message me your e-mail addresses. Thanks!

Those dates were still for this month- except the 6th of next month. Sorry I didn't clarify! I just looked up one training facility that I know of nearby and they want $400 to rent out their building... I'll keep looking! I just liked the thought of having it outside, but if we can do it for cheaper that would be good.

Hey Shannon- Chesterpal's park is in Lake County. Their parks are only $10 per dog for a daily permit if you live out of county. They have self serve kiosks in the parking lot to buy your permit- so we could get them on the day of the romp. What do you think? It's cheaper and easier than dupage

That sounds good to me! What time do you want to plan for? Since its a bit of a drive, I'd like to do later morning/afternoon. Shannon- we'll plan another one soon so Fozzie can come too. Does anybody have any specific time they want?

Chesterpal- So far its only you and me at the romp! Maybe we'll plan this one by you and one at the end of next month for a park closer this way!

It's about an hour drive for me, I think it will be about 45 minutes for you Lisa. Next romp we have, we'll have it closer- that way we make Chesterpal drive to us! LOL just kidding. I'm excited. Is 1 pm okay with you guys? (I'm NOT a morning person!) I'm planning on sending an e-mail out to you guys and the people that are on the chicago doodle romp mailing list.
