went to this tiny park in everett with Brock yesterday. it was nice because it was small enough that he couldnt wander out of sight, but plenty big enough for a good full out run, and there was no one else there so we finally got to have some one on one off-leash play.

when he first entered his foster home, his foster mom said he didn't know what toys were. and even after I adopted him he was never real big on toys. he'd rarely chase them, and never fetch, and he wasn't in the least interested in the frisbee. but if you saw him yesterday you'd never know that!! he was CRAZY for the frisbee!! it was hilarious! and man o man can he JUMP! unfortunately its hard to throw a frisbee and take a picture at the same time so I didn't get too amazing of shots, but here are some:

Brock has come so far since his foster home and coming to live with you. What a lucky doggy to end up with you! I am so glad you finally found him and he found you! :D
He is one of the most handsome doggies ever - what a looker! He looks so cute in bandanas! ;)
GREAT PICS - I thought they were AMAZING! So there! :p

Brock says thanks everyone! (he knows he's cute ;) :p)

Oh Lucee! From the looks of that photo you have nothing to worry about, you are a much better frisbee catcher than Brock is right now! :D He can jump high, and he sure runs fast, but he isn't quite good at the catching aspect yet.. hehe (Or maybe it's just that I'm a horrible thrower!! hehe)

I am glad Brock had fun! I am still trying to find an enclosed/fenced place for Gigi to run around.

oh yeah? well the off leash dog park at Magnuson park is fully fenced, but its huge, which makes me uncomfortable sometimes with Brock cause he likes to wander out of sight a lot, so thats why I liked this park in everett because its really small. it just isnt very popular I dont think (no one was there on Friday, late afternoon when I went) so I dont know if you want that, or would rather take gigi somewhere with a bunch of dogs. anyway, the park in everett that I went to is Lowell park and the dog area is fully fenced, and its right next to the tennis courts.

Right now I'd rather have a smaller fenced area. I am not even sure whether she will run in there, cuz there is probably too many interesting stuff to look at. But that's my goal: to find a small fenced area so Gigi can run around (I don't care whether there are other dogs in the same area).

veegan

hmm.. I think you should check out Lowell park then. the entire park is 10 acres (really small) but the dog area is probably not even 1 acre and its fenced really well. its probably about 2 - 3 times the size of an average backyard. gigi is really small though so I dont know exactly what size area you're thinking of. I dont know where you live, but if everett isnt too far from you, I think it'd be worth at least going to have a look. Im going to go there tomorrow actually, so I can take some pictures of the whole thing so you can get an idea of the size if you are interested. (just let me know and I can PM you the photos tomorrow)

Brock took a looong time to calm down after we got there, cause like you said, there were tons of things to smell.. and of course he had to go potty, but once he stopped sniffing we were able to play (as you can see in the photos ;)).

jenfer- I will PM you the pics in a few mins. :)

tom- thats awesome :D she is (obviously!) doing very well! Brock waits until I throw it to run after it, so its long landed by the time he reaches it, so Ive been telling him to stay and then I walk away and throw it to him. Only problem is I cant throw very well ;)

I will post a thread about another seattle meeting right now!
