This park is actually about 25 miles from home, but the owners regulate it. Vaccination proof required, written set of rules and expulsion for non-compliance. I like the two women who own it. They are real "dog people" - they have them, they understand them and they train them. Big difference from people who own dogs - as you well know.

I think once the kids get used to the whole idea, it'll be great. Right now the only dogs they get to play with are one another. They need others to fill out their personalities (if that makes sense). Kind of like people need other people and experiences to round out their lives.
