A sunny Saturday afternoon at Morris County’s Central Park dog park welcomed Scraps and Rags and a whole host of other dogs, big and small. The beautiful weather really brings out the dogs and they all seemed to have a good time. Scraps and Rags were able to meet their across the street neighbor, Cloe who Rags barks at on the street so they never had a real chance to meet in peace. It hardly mattered, Rags still barked at her in the dog park but they were a little more friendly to each other. Trace was the cool Jack Russell that like to elevate.

With the Jets playing the Patriots at 4:00 and the Giants playing the Colts at 8:00, it afforded many people the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Sunday afternoon sunshine with the dogs at the dog park. After finishing her second week of beginners agility training on Sunday morning, Rags grabbed her brother Scraps and the bicycles and we all headed over to the dog park.
When we got there we discovered many dogs in the small dog park including tiny little RoxyChi who we met yesterday, Phoebe, Lewis and Clark and other came and went. This may have been the most crowded day we have had at the new dog park. At one point I tried to count and I estimate 40 dogs were in the large dog park with probably 10 more in the small. It was a great day and all the dogs seem to play well together.
After spending a while in the small dog park we entered the big one and did a lap. There we met Trace, a wiry-haired Jack Russell. There was the Carin Terrier named Guinness. Many new dogs to add to the blog. We then sat down with the big dogs in the shade and enjoyed their play. We saw this other white haired Jack Russell named Luna with a grey patch over her left eye. There was also Oliver the Bassett Hound. Wow, there were a lot of dogs and it was just so comfortable, everyone was just relaxing on the lawn while their dogs played. We spent 2 to 2 and a half hours at the park without batting an eye. We eventually ended up in the small dog park to close the day and the weekend. We are still enjoying this great dog park as its popularity keeps growing. It really has been a great gift to us.
I have been reluctant to take my Golden Retriever to the dog park in fear of aggressive dogs. I started taking in in the morning and it was great, he got the energy out and the dogs were well behaved. Tonight I decided to take him to get the energy out and there was a small dog mounting many other the dogs, sounded aggressive, at first was coming at my dog w […]
Please post a copy of the dog park rules by all the gates in the central dog park. The parks are getting very crowded and 99 % are well behaved, out for for a day of fun and have responsible owners. BUT the remainder ignore the rules, don’t clean up waste ( an extreme health hazard to both humans and dogs) and ignore the rules. There are some aggressive dogs […]
