Macon Dog Park

       Our lab that was to take place at the Macon Dog Park, which is also called Tyler's Place, was cut short by a ridiculously bad thunderstorm. We made it about as far as Tatnell Square Park before taking cover under a tree and then walking/running back to our respective places of warmth and dryness.
       Before that however we talked about dog parks and how they are good ways to build community between dog owners since everyone there is a dog lover, it can be the basis for a friendship that otherwise would not have happened. I did learn however that taking puppies to a dog park is not a very good idea because of the risk of the puppy contracting Parvo, which is basically a death sentence for the puppy. So the moral of this story is take your dog not your puppy and make friends with the other dog owners, and always wear a rain coat if the weather looks iffy.

Here is the blog link for the Macon Dog Park http://www.macondogpark.org/

I've never had a dog, but if I did I think I would want a big dog like a Newfoundland or a Husky.
