To be frank I am looking for good people to hang out with during the weekday. I jealously reserve the weekends and evenings to spend with my spouse. Age, sex, and all the rest does not matter. The interests are all mine and are not required either. This is in no way a dating group. I simply enjoy talking to people and learning about their lives. All meetups will be in public places, so no worries. Hope to see you soon.

Hi All, We have a wonderful, loving, but VERY energetic 8 month-old Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier (mix?? We adopted her from a shelter...). She seems to have a little too much energy for some of the dogs at the dog park and her day camp, so one of our friends suggested trying to start a Wheaten Terrier playdate. We're hoping there are other Wheaten Terrier owners in the Northern Virginia/DC area who might be interested as well!
