What we’re about
Calling all extra small dogs (15 pounds and under) and their owners near Norwood, Massachusetts! We'd love for our Chipper to meet other very small dogs! He is fully grown at 6 and a half pounds.
Check out our photos from past Meetups. All small dogs that have good doggy manners and are polite with other dogs of any breed or mix are invited. Please be sure your dog(s) are healthy and up-to-date with shots, heart worm and flea & tick medication. Pups should be spayed or fixed. Come join our fun and friendly group!
Anyone you bring that is bringing a dog MUST sign up and have a Profile as we have to know what dogs are going to be there for safety reasons. This is a rule that must be followed if we are going to maintain this Meetup.
Providing your dog with a consistent routine of ongoing socialization is a key to maintaining their well-being and to preventing many behavior issues, specifically those due to boredom, lack of confidence, and stress. Learning good social skills leads to a healthy and happy dog!
We had FREE use of a huge indoor space in Norwood, MA before te Pandemic but now need to be looking for another space. We'll see what other pooch play events we can schedule! Feel free to email me with any of your own ideas! We can also meet sometimes at Panera Bread (they allow dogs on their patio!) for some food and drink afterward. We might even do some pup sitting for each other and a sharing of ideas!
Because of allergies that some dogs have, no food or treats are allowed during the time we meet indoors.
Attend any of our fun Meetups and your dog will thank you with wags of gratitude! Following all of these Guidelines have allowed us to continue successfully since August of 2015! WE NEED TO RUN A TIGHT SHIP WITH ALL THE MEMBERS THAT WE HAVE! WE ARE DEALING WITH A LOT OF MEMBERS AND DOGS.
PLEASE only join if you are serious about attending our group and PLEASE change your RSVP if your plans do change. We do take this Meetup seriously and we do keep track of no-shows. We ask that you have a photo for your Profile. This is very important.
You WILL be removed from the group after three no-shows without any explanation. All you have to do is take a second to change your RSVP and/or comment that you just could not make it. We wait for you and lock the door afterwards. On a walk we stand there and wait for you. Meet-up can keep track of no shows.
