Annual Holiday Parade Dogwalk A Big Success!   Message List

RE: [Knightsparkdogwalkers] Annual Holiday Parade Dogwalk A Big Success!

I found it extremely annoying to have a
motorcycle group behind our group.

Almost the entire length of Haddon Avenue
we had some moron complaining we weren't
going fast enough.

And then when I finally dropped out
from frustration I discovered that the motorcycles
were about 3 blocks ahead of the next group !!!

There was literally a gap of 2-3 blocks with noone there
because morons on motorcycles apparently
had some place really important to go at noon.

I have no idea how someone would decide that
putting dogs in front of a motorcycle group was
a good idea. It seemed REALLY stupid to me.

When we began marching at 10:15, I didn't notice
these clowns being behind us and I'm not sure
when that happened.

After standing around for 1:15 minutes,
I didn't appreciate being rushed down the
street like that.

**************************

I wasn't that crazy about having people walking
shelter dogs as part of our group.
I know my little dogs extremely well but still
watch them closely to make sure they are
doing OK with the kids.

I have them both harnessed and completely
under control.

When you have young kids walking older dogs
they don't really know, among a large crowd,
that seems like it could be a problem that would
reflect poorly on the Knights Park group.

West Jersey Animal Shelter used to have their own float in that parade. I'm not sure if they did this year or not but I suspect there are some people at that...
