How To Make Sure You and Your Dog Both Have Fun At the Local Free Dog Park
The Californer/10204908

MURRIETA, Calif. - Californer -- Irish Wolfhound Lovers just published a piece outlining how to use public dog parks to give you and your favorite dog the opportunity to run and play in a large fenced area so that pets can play with you and other dogs safely.  Many do not even know that such places exist or might wonder what it takes to join or register for such a place.

The wonderful thing about such dog parks is that they are usually sponsored by the city in which they exist.  Most are free and there is no registration of any kind.  Simply show up with your dog, some plastic bags to remove your dog's poop, and then make sure to close and latch the gate behind you.

Yes, in essence it is that simple, but the article goes over a lot of tips that will make your first time experience a pleasant one instead of a disaster.  Lets look at some of the things the article discusses that can get you off to a good start when you first go there.
