2010-09-18 Central Dog Park, Late Saturday Morning

After getting a little breakfast at the nearby Morris Plains farmers market and craft show, we took our bikes and Scraps and Rags down Graniss Avenue over to the Central Park dog park.  It was surprising empty when we arrived around 11:00 with only little Simba in the small dog park.  We played with him for a little while before walking the trail in the big park.  There we met 2 French Bull Dogs, one named Bowie who was black with a black dot in the white stripe on his head.  The other one was mostly white but I didn’t catch his name.

By the time we left at close to leaving time the sun came out and so did the dogs.  There was both a nice crowd in the big dog park as well as the small dog park by the time we left at 12:15 so we took one last little jaunt in the small dog park before we left.  There is a good chance we will be back for a late afternoon session so stay tuned.

2010-09-17 – Central Dog Park from Dusk till Closing

It was the end of a long week where Scraps and Rags were working like dogs, so they enjoyed the nice relaxing bicycle ride over to the Central Park dog park where there were lots of other dogs also thanking G-d it was Friday.  Scraps and Rags first hung out in the small dog park where we saw Max the puppy collie come into the park and play with the dogs.  I even ran a lap with him while he was nibbling at my side pocket.  he’s getting big fast.  It was a bit dark for good pictures but I got what I got.  We also saw the cute little Lenny who we saw a long time ago at the Denvilledog park but this was the first time we have seen him here.

We then headed into the big dog park where we saw a Great Dane and Scraps found his boyfriend Patches.  We did a nice walk around the the trail and then biked on home.  An enjoyable Friday evening and we all look forward to some weekend fun at the dog park as the weather is looking mighty fine.

2010-09-12 Central Dog Park in a Misty Dusk

After a Sunday that had rain and a Giant victory to open the 2010 football season, Scraps and Rags found themselves at the dog park with a few other dogs venturing their way out of their homes at around 6:30 p.m..  The dog park this evening was a much different experience than the previous nighs.  It was wet and pretty empty, only a few dogs were present and it had a eerie presence to it.

2010-09-11 Central Dog Park – Double Dose Saturday

It really was a beautiful Saturday so while we played at the dog park a little in the morning, the magnificence of the day was beckoning us back to the canines.  We were planning on going to the Denville dog park for the pre-dinner session but while passing the Central Dog Park we could resist pulling in when we saw such a nice large crowd.

In the small dog park was GracieWhite Spike. a couple of puppies, a little puppie who was freaked by the camera and four Dachshunds of various sizes.  We saw Gretsch  while in the small dog park and eventually wandered into the big dog park to hang out with the bigger guys.  While in the morning we had hounds and shepherds, the evening session seemed to have a lot of pit bulls.  The were all very friendly and we had another fun dog park experience. We also me Tara later on a fast little mutt a bit bigger than Scraps but with similar markings.
