Something that all dogs need: Exercise, Walks & Mental Stimulation!! Pooky's club was originally established in 2003 as a "cockers" only meetup.

While it's nice to make the trek into Manhattan... sometimes it's nice to just stay local and take advantage of all the parks and dog runs we have in Brooklyn. Plus, I don't know about you but gearing up my pooch Ralfie and packing up his goodies can be quite an ordeal... especially if you have to bridge or tunnel into the city! Ralfie and I would love to meet up with other Brooklyn corgis and corgi owners. We can meetup once a month (or play it by ear) to let our pooches have some fun together.
