That is great that you now have a dog park to take your dogs to. Our dogs love ours - whether there are other dogs there or not. I would imagine that if you were there early - like 7 am that you would be alone - not too many people are up and around that early. We have found that evenings are the best if you want to find other dogs - usually from 6:30 on. And oddly enough it seems that the park is usually not all that heavily used on the weekends although some people bring their dogs out on Sunday evening. I think a lot of people do their thing on the weekend and then feel guilty and Monday nights is one of the busiest nights of the week. It's kind of strange but it seems that early in the week there are lots of dogs and later in the week you see fewer and fewer. Friday and Saturday nights usually are "slow" nights.
We had ours out at the dog park last night. There was a shnauzer named Sophie, a schnauzer mix named Harley, and a golden named Baby who we last saw last summer when he was truly a baby - now at 90lbs he is no baby.
An aussie joined us for a few minutes to try the park out - his first visit and they will be getting a pass so they can legally join the rest of us.
Before we left another aussie mix came named Zelda and her sister a mix of ? named Zoe.
A man with a chocolate lab puppie stopped but did not seem to like the other dogs checking out his pup (I guess when he usually comes out there are no other dogs - which is what he wants) and he left rather quickly.
The other dogs ran and chased each other and wore themselves out.We went home happy to have worn out dogs to pass the rest of the evening quietly for a change.
