your right cooper river is almost always muddy. for some reason they just can't keep grass. / voorhees does have a hawk problem. my mom lives down the road and i watch the hawks fly overhead on a regular basis. / mt laurel in my opinion is the best of these three. it's way in the back. very hard to see from the parking lot. it is well maintained./ medford is nice , but not totally fenced in and the danger of larger dogs is a problem.(no small dog area)

Laurel Acres Dog Park

Well I just came from Laurel Acres. It's a beautiful park! Lots of space. The dog park is hard to see in the back. It's a long walk from the parking lot. It was a little muddy because of all the rain, but not like the mud at Cooper River Park. There is only one bench there for someone to sit...which was right in the mud. There's no trash cans/pooper scooper, etc.. to put any feces in. There's not a water fountain nearby to fill up bowls with water. There isn't any shade too, which is too bad, because it is a nice park!

I actually met up with Lauren (Laur...Diamond's mommy!!) at the park. We both noticed how there are some gaps in the fencing that a little dog could fit through. Right when we were leaving though, a woman with FOUR yorkies came to the park!! They were sooo cute.

In all....it's not a bad park, but with the one bench and no shade....I was kinda disappointed. If we were to go there, I would suggest everyone bringing their own chairs to sit and water for their dogs.

I don't know....I still like the Voorhees one! I didn't see any hawks there while I was there yesterday. Maybe someone else can go there today and see for themselves???

Anyways, here are the pics from the park!!

Okay...so what park did we decide on? I've been lost for a few hours

LaLoca1 · 09-05-2006, 08:46 PM

It's up to the majority.....there's pictures of all the parks that we're considering, I've been to all of them....Lauren was at Laurel Acres....Romeo's Mom has been to almost all of them as well. So whichever one the majority wants, I'll be there!

kaymo · 09-05-2006, 10:25 PM

I vote for Centennial Park. As for the hawks.....I live in Gibbstown and we have a lot of hawks (and eagles too) but they won't bother the dogs as long as we're outside with them. I won't let my dogs out without me being right there though!

By the way what time are we meeting?

Timmy · 09-06-2006, 04:34 AM

I will go to any...never been to one before.

i like the park with the hawk warning. i'm sure if enough of us are there the hawks won't bother us. the park looks nice!

LaLoca1 · 09-06-2006, 08:44 AM

Since the weather is clearing up again, I'm going back to the Voorhees Park to go hawk hunting. I'm not going to take Adrianna (her stitches were removed on Tuesday and I'm still a little wary about possible infections), so I'll take Rica the model again.

I'll tell you guys how it goes!!!
