You knew it was coming: a cute blog post rife with puns, featuring dogs in Halloween costumes.
There is an annual Halloween pup pawrade in New York City's Tompkins Square Park, and the New York Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Meetup attends with their ghoulish droolish companions.
Their Meetup on October 24th coincided with the event as usua l, and I found lots of great photos uploaded from their 2008 haunt, such as these boo-tiful poochies dressed as a hot dog and another as a piñata!
Kate is on Meetup's Community team.

Aww! Check out this adorable photo posted by Benita and the munchkins, member of the Leashes of Love Meetup Group in Cherry Hill, NJ:
This pooch is sayin', "Do ya like my hair?"
We sure do!

We'd like to give a warm welcome to the newest edition to the Meetup staff... Marlowe!
Marlowe joined us for Take Your Dog to Work Day, and he did an excellent job coding, manning the phones, and spreading good cheer.
Marlowe's proud father is our very own Gary, who was right beside his pooch checking all the p's and SQL's.
It looks like many of you out there made notes on Group calendars about Take Your Dog to Work Day. If you post pictures to your Group photo album, let us know!

Congratulations to Sandy Rosenberg!
If you live in San Diego, it would have been hard to miss their recent Vernal EquiDox, or their monthly Yappy Hour at the La Jolla Brew House. Why? Well, the wiener dog is in a class all it's own; loveable, fun, unusual and friendly - just like their fabulous owners.
She may be our Organizer of the Week for running this Meetup, but Sandy does not own a Dachshund. What? Nope!
Sandy started this Meetup for the love of the breed. Through the Group, she's able to enjoy the company of people who may or may not be owners, but who share her passion for Dachshunds.
She's also able to work with her members to support some of her favorite causes, like the Humane Society. Nice!
Check out Angela's interview with her in the Organizer Center here. Woof!

Oh that's right: puppy treats.
Hat's off to the Denver Yappy Hour Club who put together a Valentine's BYOB Paw-tee.
On a day when folks are supposed to celebrate love, who better to celebrate with than your four-legged companion, and some equally cool Meetup pals?
Dog owners know their pups love them unconditionally. And here at Meetup HQ, we love each and every one of our Organizers and members.
Aww.

Boston: Home of the Tea Party and Quincy Market, has an even more unique niche as stomping grounds for the Boston Snow Dogs Meetup.
Thanks go out to Angela for Tania's fun and interactive inteview in the Organizer Center here!
Tania's Meetup Group encourages pack bonding for the dogs and team building amongst the membership. A recent member's testimonial says it all:
"Boston Snow Dogs is a great idea and a wonderful time for our furry friends and ourselves. We have a great pack leader, Tania who works timelessly on improving our meetup site and getting the pack together and involed. Paws up Tania!!! As a memeber, I am really thankful I am meeting others who share the same passion about the Siberian Husky breed as well as the other northern breeds. The more the merrier!!"
Check out their Boston.com article right here. Paw's up from your friends at Meetup HQ too!
