Now that I have a dog, I have a reason to visit dog park(s). I know of only one about 35 minutes away from my home. I have really, really enjoyed taking Prue to the park. Most dogs are fun for Prue. There have been a couple of dogs that needed to be taken home within minutes, but luckily not Prue. I have enjoyed meeting the people as well as hearing about their dogs. A whole new world. Can you imagine a "cat park"? Hehehehehehehehehe!

I wish my community had such a thing. I know everyone would appreciate it. The dogs get so socialized, very quickly.

Prue comes home EXHAUSTED! She has been three times and each time she is more relaxed and less fussy about who is sniffing her and where. At first she gave in and would flip over.... now she does the sniffing! You go girl!

Anyway, if anyone has any considerations about dog parks, and I know they are all not fabulous, I highly recommend taking your dog to a park. You know your dog best - it takes a bit of courage to take your dog off the leash and let the dogs take over.

Yea, dog parks! I love them.
