I'm up for it...I'm close to Reading PA and 2.5 hrs, on a good day, from MD.

Ooooh, oooh I was just going to hop on the bandwagon as ask the same question!! We're SO in for an east coast chow fest. Willing to drive wherever!!

If it turns out that MD is the closest for us easterners there are a couple of places I know that we could have it. Can't wait to see what develops!

I'm only a couple of hours from Maryland, I'm in!! I'll make cute doggie treat bags and homemade biscuts.

How come no one ever mentions real food at these Chowfest like BBQ Steaks, BBQ Chicken, Hot dogs and hamburgers, home made potato salad. freshly baked pies. I don't find any fun in watching Pekoe eating biscuits and cookies that's fine for her but bring on the human food.

Wait a minute, are you saying human food for Pekoe or you? Because everything you mentioned I was thinking oh Special would love that, and then when I read salad, I thought oh maybe he means people food for people. Because eating a hot dog is inconceivable if I'm not going to share with Spesh.

I am east coast but that is just too far north for us. But my sis in law and Ziyear are up in virginia so maybe they will want to come.... Well anyway just pouting.

Me of course, not Pekoe. What she's going to run around with the zoomies, visit with the other Chows and have treats then a BBQ steak on top of it while I sit in -25 degree weather saying oh how cute, sureeeeeeee.

We are waiting for the spring thaw Jeff, thought you knew. If you start driving now, you will be able to make it, too!

Jeff, my daugther would like me to pass you a message.

"she not big enough be in the snow like that. She not old enough to fly she has to be big like this (holding her hand over her head as far as she can) she gonna get in big trouble. Her daddy better take her home. She needs to go inside."

I think you know who she is talking about.

OMG Red, your daughter is too cute!!!!

LOL at Jeff.

Yay, this is so cool, it'll be so awesome if we can get this together. I'd love for Special meet everyone.

an east coast soiree, what a great idea!! im waaaaaayyyyyy east.lol. id be willing to drive. i drove almost 5 hours to get luna from the animal shelter she was in. she loves the car too.
jeff, i know you werent talking
about bbq ribs and steaks for the furkids, after all, they eat nutro! lol.lol.

i'd be willing to bring some food. let me know. can we at least wait til the temperature reaches double digits??

I would love for a chowfest - we are 20 minutes South of Philly. I'm 1 & 1/2 hrs from Reading, Pa. and a little less than 3 hours from Ocean City, Maryland.

sounds like we have a chowfest in the making. Everyone seems up for it. just need to do logistics and crap. Now, does MD, VA. or PA sound best? or somewhere else? perhaps we need a poll? I dont' know how this is done. I only know it would be cool.

i say nc nc nc its only 2 hours from virginia..... darn I know I am outta this one.

We should have our own southeast chowfest. Now all I have to do is find a place where you can rent a chow for a day....

well you could just take that lil chow puppy that is so horrible cute at this link and then you have one....

look how cute she is just a sweet lil face and she want you. You know you want her. Yeah that's right I will try to give her to everyone on the site.

She sure is cute, but you know my heart beats for those big, tough boys.
I thought Precious wanted her, what happened?

Did not happen. I wanted her to, but hubby just got word of a transfer. Nothing concrete yet but we should be going to germany.

of course a couple years ago they said we were going to guam and that did not happen so I guess we will see.

That would be so funny, cause it looks like I'll be in Germany again soon, too. That's also the reason why I can't adopt a chow right now.

Some people have multiple chows and I'm sure you could have a chow for a day! I'd be willing to drive PA, MD, VA whatever seems most central. Maybe we set a limit on the amount of hours we are willing to drive...say within 5 hours and maybe that will help. I am near (PENN) State College, PA and I'm flexible so see what others are thinking! Sounds like fun. I don't know what everyone's schedule is like either but April and August are my most free time right now.

Hi All! We wanna come too! We're in NC - well actually almost SC. And we could always have 2 out here... one for Northeast one for Southeast if we everyone is having to drive to far to find a middle ground!

If we aren't having it at someone's house, then maybe we can all search for an area nearby that allows pets, and also is somewhere people would want to travel to. Maybe the Shore? Maybe the Poconos? Valley Forge (PA)? - Assateague - (Maryland)?

I think there should be Northeast Chowfest, and a Southeast Chowfest. And everyone else on here should set some up in their areas

hey all, count us in for the northeast chowfest! i told luna and she is so excited. she wants to know whether to pack a bikini, or bring a volleyball net. lol. keep us posted.

Crewe in Cheshire is East of Wales so it could be here!
