Hi I live in the city and the park I can take Hawk to be on a bus route but it
is a walk of three blocks in and then he can play and then three blocks out
that is not including the two blocks from my front door to the bus and the two
blocks back in. You get a day to go to the park and you go and he is too tired
to work back to the bus and then home the bus ride is ten minutes and I find it
just does not work for us. If we get a ride there to play he does enjoy it as
it is a baseball field closed in.
We do have a small pit in the back yard but my children have to take him there
as he could go out of area. I live in a gated complex and it does let us let
him run in the back. From Hawk and Louise

Sorry if this is a repeat, but I can't follow what just happened with my email.
Dur.
Zym doesn't get free runs half often enough, and I don't have anyone around to
assist me with it at the moment.
But all is not lost, because I can let him run around on a long flexi-lead.
It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing. Now he's got the hang of it, he
realises he can run about and sniff and do what dogs do; all except running off
in search of discarded takeaway packages! or malt loaves, wrapping and all,
which allegedly he managed to steal on one occasion. I was ready for that to be
a serious issue, but he hasn't shown any ill-effects.
I know one place where it's pretty safe to let him go, but it's about 4 miles
away, and not on a bus route as far as I know. It's a park well away from
roads, and with enough space to play with his ball or some other toy. Usually
deserted, too, so he can't bother picnickers, kids with footballs or other
dogs, which he might do in more crowded parks. I might try to get to this place
once we've stopped having all these storms, which assuredly doesn't help
anyone. Beautiful day here today, but it's started raining now, and no doubt
won't know when to stop.
Vince.

Hi I was told at least once a week for Pearl but due to the weather and not
having anyone to go with very often she doesn't have that many.
Debbie and Pearl
