2010-12-31 Central Dog Park on NYE in the Snow

Scraps and Rags were able to enjoy the last day of the year at Morris County’s dog park with a dozen or so puppy pals.  It was nice and warm, yet not sunny so the pictures lack a little shine to them.  The snow from the previous blizzard covered half the dog park while dry ground covered the rest. There was a surprisingly small amount of mud considering that quite a bit of snow had melted.

We were able to find a couple of new dogs to the blog based on extracting their names from their dog tags.  We welcome Tanner the brown muscular dog and Zoey the cute auburn dog.  Additionally, we welcome Mallomar the Belgian Shepard and Tootsie the little black pug like animal to the blog.  We met them before but I guess they were never officially tagged and welcomed.

Happy New Year to all the dogs and the people and we all look forward to our first full year at the Morris County Dog Park at Central Park.

2010-12-24 Central Dog Park on Christmas Eve

Scraps and Rags enjoyed the relatively warm, nice weather at the dog park on the afternoon of Christmas Eve to get some last minute dog park action in before the holiday. We first went to the small dog park where there were a handful of pups including Rocky the Schnauzer with a nice blue stripped sweater.  He was new to us and the blog, so welcome Rocky. We then went into the large dog park where we also saw a handful of dogs wrestling with each other.  Finally, we finished the day back in the small dog park where we saw a brown and white Jack Russell having a nice tussle with Pearl the brown Puggle.  Those two were stuck to each other like Velcro during their wrestling match.  Good clean fun for every one involved.

With a substantial snow storm bearing down on the Garden State the day after Christmas, it looks like this may be the last day at the dog park for the year for both Scraps and Rags.  With that said, we all wish everyone the best of holiday seasons and joyous new year.

2010-12-21 Central Dog Park on a Cold Tuesday Afternoon

On the shortest day of the year, Scraps and Rags decided to go to the dog park on a cold Tuesday afternoon.  Arriving at 2:00 p.m., we knew there wouldn’t be many dogs at the park and our premonition proved to be  true. Only Samson was in the small dog park and a handful of large dogs in the large one.  Scraps and Rags didn’t play much with Samson so we headed to the big dog park and ran a couple of laps around the perimeter.  The path was was frozen, barren and fast with only a few slippery muddy spots. With most of the grass gone, it’s better to go to the dog park in the freezing cold rather than the thawing warm.  It’s gonna be a messy spring and after today we continue to head right toward it with longer brighter days ahead of us.

2010-12-11 Central Dog Park on Saturday Afternoon

It is a nice sunny warm Saturday afternoon and  it was time to get Scraps and Rags out of the house and to the dog park.  They haven’t been to the dog park for two weeks now and we couldn’t waste this nice weather so we hit up the park for an hour or so.   The ground was hard and frozen so it was a pleasure to walk on but it is a bit depressing to see how all the grass is gone.

There was a nice crowd of dogs out there a a few new ones to the dog park blog.  There was Bella, the 6-month old black Lab-Border Collie mix.  She was very playful and we she welcome her and refer to her a BellaLab. We also had Jack the fluffy white Nordic looking dog.  Oliver the Westie and Bruno the Bulldog pup.

After a good hour in the small dog park with chasing the balls and the dogs we headed into the large dog park.  We saw many more dogs in there and played for a while and then did a lap and headed home.  A nice day at the park with a lot of good photographs.
