DISGUSTED, WHERE WERE THE SIGNS. I LOOKED FOR AN HOUR THERE JUST LOOKING FOR THE MEETUP GROUP. TOTALLY INCONSIDERATE OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT LIVE IN THE AREA. WASTE OF PRECIOUS TIME AND GAS! -

Not just another walk in the park. Having Joel Robinson as our guide was an invaluable experience. Without him there to point out the poison oak, I'm sure that our two dogs (and maybe even we) would have tromped right through it. Joel made us aware of the variety of edibles on which one could survive, and the abundant wildlife which exists (and once existed) in the Santa Ana Mountain Range. It's just a shame that we had yield so often to idiots who "appreciate" nature from inside their four wheel drives. Thanks Joel! We had a great time last Friday evening.— Al Smith

People were very nice, and Joel was both informative and enthusiastic. I was a bit bummed that most people who signed up didn't show, and I might have started this a bit earlier to maximize sundown...it was a bit dark at the end. -

HAD A FUN TIME. I REALLY LIKED THE RED CARPET PHOTOS. IT WAS CUTE TO WATCH THE LITTLE DOGS HUNT FOR HOT DOGS. GLAD YOU HAD FOOD TO BUY THIS TIME. -
It sure seemed like a lot more than 30 attendees. Our dogs had fun, for them outing+food=excellent time! -
It was a fun day for a great cause.— Stephen & Brandi Terry (Founders & Organizers)
-
My dog and I had a great time, he really enjoyed the weiner hunt -
We were somewhat disappointed. Wiener hunt was only for smaller dogs....Booths were more for human beings than for pets. Raffle tickets were kinda expensive @ $5/ticket (inconsiderate for people that had limited funds)— Cristina

Thank you Stephen & Brandi for another fun event =-)— Carol
-
Great fun for us & the doggies!— Denise
-
pepople did not seem very friendly and no one said hello to my dog except for some of the dogs, at which point, most people pulled their dogs away from mine when they attempted to greet. I attempted to sit at a table with another small dog and i was told that i had to go to restaurant to be seated. Lady did not seem to enjoy it either. She got car sick after the llong ride home. -
Fun day for people and Paws. Great weather, good food, and the Frisbee pups were awesome. Thank you Stephen & Brandi for another fun meet up.— Teri
-
It was really great to see all the friendly dogs and the amazing dog frisbee skills. Can't wait to attend another event with the puppies.

My son and I and Brittney (American Bulldog) we had a nice time. We were very lucky to find a parking place, we were there 1 hour early and it was extremely crowded, the large parking lots were full by the Balboa Pier. After we parked we waited by the ferris wheel for at least 1/2 hour or more with a few other club members. No show of the organizers, so a few of us went accross the ferry and found a nice place near the ferry to watch the boat parade. Didn't wait for the fire works, did not go see any decorated homes on the island. Basically the whole event fell apart and people went either their separate ways or went with a few others here and there as far as we could tell. Nothing that was "planned for weeks ahead of time" turned out. Perhaps it was just too many people and no parking places. I feel that there were probably a lot of very disappointed people who wanted to do this but were unable to because of the parking problems. Perhaps an earlier date would be better next year. -
disappointed in turn out, we got there early like we were told and most of the sign up were a now show, next time we need phone number to call the organizers to find out if it was cancelled if they are no shows -
Drove around and around and could not find PARKING ! We went on auto ferry across and somehow landed on a dead end street where we got to see the last 7 mins of the boat parade !! Later, we crossed and barely saw the grand finale of the fireworks!! Brought my mom and daughter. We drove from Rancho Cucamonga as I had to pick up my daughter from her job.......

Parking was so difficult for that location that we weren't able to attend. It was a bummer evening.
— Stephen & Brandi Terry (Founders & Organizers)
-
It seems like a lot of people weren't able to make it due to traffic. I had to park pretty far from the Fun Zone and walk, but it was totally worth it - Philip and I had a great time hanging out watching the boats, and chatting with the people we did find :) -

Worthy cause, dogs & dog people, Santa photos... Great!! And cupcakes for $1 donation. If it were possible to add one of those fun food trucks and casual seating area, it would be perfect. -

It was a great event! I met several people from the Irvine Animal Shelter however I was trying to meet members of PAWS. I did not realize as a brand new member this was not a exclusive PAWS event. Therefore I did not actually meet anyone from PAWS. -

We want to everyone who came out and participated. It was a wonderful day, with lots of Paws in Costume. Old World was great with allowing the dogs inside and we couldn't have held this event without their help. Thanks to the Sponsors for donating great prizes for the winner of the Costume Contest which was a Chia Pet, so cute! It was really a great day, and best of all, with this event and previous events the Paw It Forward Campaign's December Pawliday Dog Adoption Event being held at O.C. Animal Care has been funded. So Thank You Everyone for Pawing It Forward and coming out to this Howling Halloween Pawty!

Lots of room to walk around with the dogs and mingle at tables. The races were fun to watch.— ~Patricia~ (Co-Organizer)

Had a blast. Lots of adorable pups and very nice people. Weather was perfect as well. The Terry's did an awesome job putting this all together. Hope lots of $$ was raised. Riley, the Big Kahuna, had a good time and looks forward to re-match for next year.
