Maltese mix needs a good home!
If you can't see the photos, click on the black box. The full size will pop up. They're worth seeing, too, this girl's gorgeous!
A beautiful tiny senior dog who needs a good home. Click on the photo to see a blown up version.
This is a probable maltese, probable mix, who may have some hearing impairment. She is an older dog who was snatched from the euthanasia line by Sus Brown's son yesterday. He whisked her to the vet where she had all her shots updated and some much-needed dental work. They groomed her. Her fur is soft and silky.
I met this dog today and she is extremely people-friendly, though needs to be held firmly. She is also dog friendly. Sus says she fetches and plays at her house. She would make a lovely pet for a senior citizen or other person who does not get out much. Click on photo to see full size
For more information and to adopt this beauty for your very own, contact Sus Brown at:
es-brown@sbcglobal.net, or drop Chip and Dale's mom a message here and I'll get you set up with Sus.
This last photo gives an indication of her size. The chihuahua(black, to the front) is very small and the chi/terrier mix in the back is probably 10-12 pounds. I'll guess this baby weighs 4 or 5.
Please take me home and love me!

About Us and Very Timely Messages
Board Meeting Open to Public!
Tuesday, July 7, 2009. 7 to 8:30 PM. North Room in the Veteran's Building. That building is the brown one-story building where the pancake breakfasts are held. There is a gym type area opening off the parking lot, but that is NOT where the meeting will be. The meeting will be in the smallish room with a door facing the street (Grant Avenue). It is also NOT the office type building where you first turn in to get to the dog park off of Grant. Please bring your questions, enthusiasm, concerns, ideas, commitment. The room is very small, and may be very hot, so concern for your dog's safety would indicate it would be better not to bring your pet, and better still not to leave it in the car while you attend.
Did you even know there was a dog flu that has a high mortality rate? Particularly problematic with short-snout, snub nose breeds. The good news is there is now a vaccine. Dog flu vaccine:
Pet Photo Contest, The Sac Bee is looking for your best pet pic - whether it's cute or ugly, serious or funny - enter our new contest and you could win a $100 gift card for Western Pet and Feed Supply. Contact Sacramento Bee or sacpaws.com
In Memory: Virginia Reeves lost Pavlov. Our hearts go out to her and Spencer.

We rely on human beings to monitor their animal's waste. Please use the covered containers. An otherwise nice day at the park can become very unpleasant when dog waste is dumped into open containers. It stinks, draws flies, spreads disease, and gives naysayers a reason to complain about the dog park. If you miss where your dog went, be a pal and pick up the pile you almost stepped in.
Getting your newsletter? There are usually a few black and white copies of the newsletter in the literature boxes at the dog park, but they go fast. To ensure you get your copy -- and a color one at that -- simply pay your dues for the Carmichael Dog Park Society of only $15 yearly. Magically, a color copy of the newsletter will show up in your email each month.
Carmichael Dog Park, also called the Canine Corral, is located within Carmichael Park at 5750 Grant Avenue and is Carmichael's first off-leash dog park, maintained and operated by Carmichael Dog Park Society (CDPS) in conjunction and cooperation with the Carmichael Recreation and Park District (CR&PD). Please note: ALL dogs visiting the actual dog park are required to have current vaccinations, especially rabies. Talk to your vet about getting Bordetella shots (kennel cough) to protect your dog when mingling with large numbers of strangers. We highly recommend your dogs be spayed or neutered.
Watch this box for any information that is considered urgent, timely, of importance or interest to the entire dog park community. This way you don't have to look all over the website -- it'll be right here.

Photos
To find all the rest of the photos . . .
All the above photos are viewed in thumbnail size. Just click on them to see full size, with all the details hard to see in the smaller sizes. There are many, many more photos than appear on the website. The space is limited here, and many of the shots are near-duplicates, just slight variations in pose or facial expression -- lovely to owners (and photographers), boring to the rest of the world.
Here are the links to the rest of the photos in May and June, 2009. All photos may be downloaded for personal use. Click on the links. If any problems, contact Chip and Dale's mom.
