Our Next Meetup will be at White Rock Lake Dog Park on Saturday the 17th of January, at 11:00 am. We're looking for an indoor location, but if we don't find one we will be at White Rock Lake Dog Park.

Our expert Yorkie breeder, and fellow meetup member, Kathi Grice, will be there to share her Yorkie dog care tips, grooming secrets, and dog psychology. Bring your questions, she'll have the answers!.

Kathi will be bringing a handful of her Yorkie Retail Items. You will love these Yorkie sized toys, clothes, beds, ect. for your pup.

Bring a chair for your yourself if possible, we found blankets don't work; and finding a picnic table in the shade is impossible. Come for your Yorkie, or come for the chit chat, but please just come!

If you haven't visited our Photo Album section lately I suggest you visit it. The albums are located under 'PHOTOS' on the Blue Index bar on the left of this Web Site. You will see photos of some of our many Yorkie members, evidently they will all be pictured there.

White Rock Lake Dog Park is located at:
8000 East Mockingbird Lane
(where Mockingbird crosses over White Rock Lake)

The City of Dallas locks the dog park if it has been raining. So if it rains Saturday, or late Friday, the park will probably be closed. Check this web site.

Your Yorkie must have their current vaccinations, including Bordetella booster for the safety of all.

A bit of information about White Rock Lake Dog Park . . .
The city of Dallas has provided dog lovers with three spacious grassy areas, fenced separately and somewhat shaded for their dogs.
1. One area is for small dogs (under 30 lbs.)
2. One area is for large dogs (over 30 lbs.)
3. One area is for dogs of all sizes to swim in the lake.

We meet in the small dog section (dogs under 30 lbs.) At past Meetups, we have been able to meet under shade trees, in a corner of this section; a few other dogs come to visit and smell around, but basically leave our Yorkie group alone.

    We were looking forward to meeting today. I had to work at 12 so Chili and I came to the dog park at 10 to play before leaving early. We were having a ball before a bully pug named Roxie came & knocked Chili down, against the fence and rolled him over concrete. Roxie?s owner explained to me that she was playing and would not bite Chili. Chili did fight back but fighting is not tolerated behavior nor rough housing, so we sadly left. Maybe next time!

    • “ Well I didn't get the message that the meetup had been cancelled, so Parker, Paisley, and I headed out to White Rock Lake. I was dissappointed to learn the meetup had been cancelled due to the weather because the weather was beautiful. We had a good time anyway, and met brand new member Lorraine. Welcome Lorraine and Lexi! ”
    • “ Although the group was small, we enjoyed it. ”
    • “ This meetup was canceled about 1 hour before the meetup... the weather was hazy and it was cold. It appears that 8 people didn't hear about this and met anyway. I wasn't one of them, but I heard that it wasn't that cold and the people had a good time visiting with each other. ”
