I have been doing a lot of research on which dog park to make my regular. RJ Dog Park has won out for two reasons. Number one is that it is only a 15 minute ride which my pup likes and number two the dog park is in an isolated corner of the park and I can kick back and relax.
Bad news about new park
It turns out the Dog Park I was told about was Papago Park which is O.K. but not anywhere near Tempe Town Lake. My pup and I did go running around behind the buttes awhile but there was a lot of glass and garbage back there. Oh, well.
New possible Dog Park?
I was talking to someone at Chaparrel Dog Park tonight who said that there is a Park at Tempe Town Lake. This might explain why the other dog parks in Tempe suck so bad. In todays horrendous economy cities seem to only be able to put money into one park. I will hunt this park down and hopefully be able to add a page to my website shortly. Since I’m now living in the deep south of Phoenix this may even become my park of choice. I miss the laid back dog owners of Peoria.
New Dog Video
My dog has been enjoying running around South Mountain Preserve more than hanging at the Dog Park lately. I believe her Coyote genes are kicking in more. She really enjoys running free and chasing lizards and rodents in the desert setting. I shot a video today I hope you enjoy.
