Dog Park
Sorry guys, didn’t get any photos this time, but I’m sure I will when we go again.
Yesterday was the opening day of the new (and only) dog park in the area. It’s the Ryan Murphy Memorial Dog Park and I’m a bad visitor since I don’t know who Ryan Murphy is or why he has a dog park dedicated to him. We went to check it out yesterday afternoon with Poly.
It’s a really nice park. There are three areas: training, for dogs of all shapes and sizes; big, for those over 25 pounds; and small, for the wee ones like Poly. If you have a little dog and a big dog and want them to play together, you can take ‘em both in the big dog area or in the training area. We stayed in the small dog area for most of our time there, playing with Foster (a friend’s miniature dachshund) and Emmitt, another Italian Greyhound.
What’s that? Can’t believe there’s anther dog like Poly? Yeah, we were shocked and happy to see anther one. He’s mostly seal colored with white areas like Poly, so they looked like brother and sister. He was a bit bigger than her and his owner told us that he was a rescue. He had been abused for being too big to show. Poor little guy. He’s afraid of people and especially men, but he came right over to both Elaine and I just a few minutes after we got there. He must be getting better!
Anyway, we went and hung out for an hour or so, until Poly and we were tired and hot. She fell asleep on the way home from butt-sniffing exhaustion.
We’ll take her back as soon as we can.
