Another trip to the dog park (bunch of pics)

I took Raven and Tommy back to the dog park for their second time. They had a good time, although Raven is intimidated by the bigger/rougher players or any dog that's more dominant. I guess she's used to Tommy being such a big pushover, and Tash she is always submissive to. But when a big dog comes barreling over to her at full speed she hunches down and tucks her tail, poor girl. Smaller dogs however she just loves. I'm hoping she gains more confidence and will feel more comfortable romping with the bigger dogs. She's fine until one gets growly (even in play) or comes running up with their tail and head up, then she gets intimidated.

Anyway, enough chatter! On to the pics.

My two were worn out by the time so many other dogs showed up so we left shortly after. Thanks for looking!

Great pictures, Jess! They both look like they had a blast. Looks like a beautiful park, too. What fun! Aren't water dogs a blast to watch?

I beleive that's a dog oreo, not a dog pack!

I know Vela will LOVE Bogie. :D

LOL dog Oreo, I didn't even think of that but you are right! He is adorable for sure.

Great pics Jess, as always, looks like they mostly had a lot of fun. I'm sure Raven will get more used to it once she goes more often, and gain confidence.

Great pics, Jess! Hopefully Raven will gain confidence in time as far as larger, dominant dogs go. Overall though, it looks like they both had a really good time!

Aw you take such great pics of the dogs. They all look like they had so much! And its so awesome to see Raven out playing and haveing a great time as well:D

Those are wonderful pictures. Your dogs are so beautiful.
I love the dog oreo. LOL

Nice pictures! It looks like Tommy and Raven had a great time. The water looks so refreshing. :D

Your pictures are always so much fun to look at, thanks so much for posting these, I really enjoyed it. It always looks like Tommy and Raven have a blast!! All the dogs are such cuties, they seem so eager for summer after the cold weather. :)

those are fabulous pics Jess! :)
big ol kisses to your 2! :D

My gosh, your another one that takes fantastic pictures! The fur kids look like they had a blast. Isn't it fun to get out with the dogs? I love it when we take our dogs out and about. We all have so much fun. I love the boxer. :)

Looks like Tommy and Raven were meant for eachother. I love how Raven seems to follow him and look up to him. Not sure if that's how it is, but that's the feeling I get from the photos. :)

That looks like so much fun!!!

Wish we had proper dog parks over here :(

Those are so cool. Nice dog park. Lucky they have water like that. We have a plastic pool at our dog park.
