i wish i could say definite days- but it is usually random days I probably wont' be there at all this week (we own our own boat business so right now is busy time!)

when do you usually go??? And when we do i park at the west entrance (the one furthest down the road) and we walk over to the swing sets- down the stairs and then go left all the way back to the parking lot.

are you talking about greenway park? where the dog park is?
we go there often, this week I am working 1:45pm to 9:45pm so I won't be there this week at all, but probably on Sunday.
Maybe we can meet up then?

we dont' go to the dog park (although I have no idea where it is) layla isn't very "other dog" friendly - if the dog is very over-energetic in saying hello. lol.. she likes to be the one to be able to approach said dog- so we try and pick and choose who we say hi to at the park- and thus a dog park is not up our alley at all- miss anti-social

ohh that makes it hard .. she is not social..lol
Odie is very social.. too social
he loves the dog park. he is the smallest dog there.
we will have to figure something out sometime
he can't be trusted off leash unless he is in the dog park he has to have fences otherwise he'll run like the wind!!!

Hi - we live in London as well, very close to Masonville mall. We walked Jack (6 months, 3.8 pounds) past the Windermere dog park last weekend. We didn't take him in though - looks to me like he could fit right through the holes in the fence! Or are the holes smaller than I think they are? He just got his rabies shot this week so I haven't investigated it in any detail.

WELCOME! i am in london too I would not take Jack to a dog park. Many dogs there are dogs that have been in the house all day and their owners go there to let off steam- and they are usually poorly behaved. It can cause undo stress and sometimes confrontations between dogs. I would go somewhere that all dogs are on leash! You should go to Spring bank park- on the weekends there are TONS of dogs tehre on leash that Jack can socalize with!

[alnatmom]

I was walking him yesterday morning along the ravine behind there and someone came up to warn me that a woman was walking two puppies off their leash along the paths- what's up with that?! Jack is pretty small (although he doesn't know it) so we're quite cautious even when we are walking him on the street. I think I've offended some people, but better safe than sorry. I've heard some good things about the dog parks but I don't think they are in his future. Maybe we will try Springbank park, although it's difficult on the weekend to find the time to drive over there - we have a teenager and a tween as well.

Gypsy, Prissy and I live 15 min west of London. Sometimes we go to Springbank park but I find that it is covered with goose poop!
