Snow Day at the park

    Brr! I;m in GR too, and Sam is loving all the snow. I really don't want to go out, though. Do any other GR members go to the dog park on Benjamin and Lyon?

    I haven't been to that park. We usually go to Shaggy Pines. Have you ever been out there?
    Looking doubtful that we'll be heading out to the park anytime today though[:(] - we have a blizzard warning[:)].

    If you have a pass to Shaggy Pines, it's not worth your while to go to the GR park. Basically all it is is an acre of fence divided into 3/4 and 1/4 for the small dogs. In the summer it's super dusty, but frankly, I can't cough up the 250 or so for socialization when Sam doesn't care at all how pretty or how many features a park has.

    I totally understand. Its definitely a luxury. Unfortunately there aren't a ton of off leash parks around here. SP and GR ones are the only 2 I know of. We've taken him out to Townsend & Seidman parks but he's kind of a monkey man and his recall is good, but not 100% so I am not real comfortable off leash in unenclosed areas.

    BTW I love your avatar pic! B's best bud is an aussie/collie mix.
