The Dog Park

Dog parks have become a wonderful aspect of urban and suburban life for many dog lovers. The chance to see your friend running around and playing with other dogs is a joy. This is especially true in urban areas which lack the open space where dogs can be taken to run and enjoy an open environment.


Dog parks that I have visited are also social institutions where pet parents can sociallize with each other. Dogs make tremendous ice-breakers!


Back in San Diego I would occasionally visit Kearney Mesa dog park. Located near Mesa College, I would frequently umpire at the adjacent field and take J over to run a round in between games and afterwards.


Here in Redondo Beach I am fortunate (by design) to have a dog park less than a block away! (X marks home.)
Redondo Beach Dog Park <http://www.rbdogpark.com/> is a large park with seperate, enclosed areas for small (blue outline) and large dogs (red outline). This large dog area is roughly 50-60 yards wide and 300 yards long, providing lots of space for dozens of dogs to run and play.


Like most evenings we went over there today. Some pictures:

Oh Boy!
