Freedom!!!
Hanging with the local pack:
The nice thing about our dog park is that many of the same people and dogs frequent the park at the same times each day. So on any given day we can predict many of the dogs who will be there, and Saber knows them and loves to play with them. There's quite a large fenced area: a couple of acres of open space to run and chase and just be a dog.
Saber's been coming to the dog park since she was five months old. She's known most of her 'friends' since then. Bitey faces!
I do not use tennis balls at home, but they always seem to be lying around the dog park. Saber enjoys this, even though I am not a fan.
Frisbees are fun, too.
In the spring and fall, Saber and I were going to the local dog park about four times a week, but in the summer when school's out we rarely go because kids are not allowed inside. We do go to dog parks that allow kids when we travel, and I will be sharing pictures of the various dog parks Saber gets to visit.
One last fun thing Saber does: the Pooch Plunge. The Dog Park Society holds this fun event every September and it is a blast! There is a temporary dog park fenced off in a different city park that includes a big wading pool. We had so much fun last year and we can't wait to go again!
