We started out in the "dry" area which is a huge fenced in grassy yard. There were about 50 dogs split between small and large sections. Our two dogs are both 50 lbs. so we have to go in the large section. Jem and Clifford ran around like crazy playing with the other dogs. Of course Cliff being the alpha got a little ticked when other dogs tried to mount Jem but he is her protector so it was not a shock. After they got tired out running around we thought we would give the lake a try.
In a separate area a couple yards away there was a large section that has a beach for the dogs to walk out into the water. Again tons of dogs diving into the water to get their balls or frisbees. Jem actually walked into the water within about 5 minutes. I was so suprised. Once she got her footing and figured out where she could walk and where she would have to swim, she very gracefully swam around in her calm nature, while the other dogs pounced all around.Clifford was not so brave. He got in after a 1/2 hour but only when Travis would and he wouldn't stay in for long. Maybe next time. There was the cutest little dog that would bolt back and forth along the shore and into the mud. He was an instigator but in the cutest sense of the word.
We didn't bring our camera b/c we didn't know what to expect, but next time we will. For people who are going for the first time make sure you wear water shoes and clothes that you don't mind getting wet or muddy. Make sure you bring a water bowl and some water. They do have water fillup areas but they are at both ends of a 4 acre zone. If you bring toys make sure your dog is ok sharing b/c it won't stay their's for long. I would suggest bringing a towel as well.It was a great time and costs nothing. I think it was the best day of my dog's little lives. I would highly recommend it for anyone who has dog that socialize well.
