Woofstock 2010

This year, a local dog park was having an event called Woofstock. What I loved about this was the fact that there was a dog park for my dogs to enjoy. There were two areas. One area had an enclosed area for agility. The other area was an enclosed dog park with grass.

I brought my dogs and my brother's dog Homer. It was Homer's first time at the dog park. Since this was an off-leash dog park, I had no idea of what to expect with him. There have been times on the leash he's been aggressive but at the dog park that wasn't the case. He jumped right in and just ran along with the other dogs. When it came time to approaching other dogs, he would wag his tail and sniff. What more could I ask?

We all spent about a half an hour there since the girls were getting hot. Gigi and Cookie were basically just sitting and watching the other dogs. They were perfectly content to do that. Still, it was a great time and good to know that my dogs were able to be outside and enjoy the environment.

A Day At The Dog Park

With summer starting to wind down, I was hoping to take the dogs to the beach one more time. Due to the possibility of rain, our trip changed to the local dog park. One of the ideas my friend Pat and I tried me backing up and having Pat hold on to them. When I got quite a distance away, they would run towards me. These types of sprints are a great way to expend an energetic dog's energy. Below are some pictures from that day.
