Beautiful Sunday —let's go to the park with Abbey



Today we took Abbey to Bayview Park (aka Wag Park).

When we arrived there was only one dog— a big old Newfoundland dog — nice and kicked back. He greeted Abbey and showed her about ten feet of the park and then needed a nap. He definitely wasn't the let's run around and own this park together type.

In another part of the park, penned off for dogs 25 pounds and under, was a cute but yappy Coonhound. Abbey went over to greet her. She was a lovely little thing but wanted all of my attention at which point, Abbey got jealous and walked away to pout.

Hey lady, where you going? Come back!

Within a few minutes a number of dogs arrived. Abbey wasn't sure of them so she stayed very close to my side. There were three very large dogs who sounded like a herd of horses as they sped passed. I took cover near a picnic table before they could sideswipe me.


I'm trouble, Yeah trouble now, I'm trouble ya'll

A very old, yet distinguished looking, german shepherd slowly crept by us. He didn't pay much attention to anything or anyone. But he was gorgeous to look at — shades of copper and charcoal showed he must have been even more so in his younger years.

Here are the beautiful troublemakers.

Here is a panoramic view of the Burlington Skyline from the dog park.


The park is located in Burlington, Ontario. It's clean and well kept by stewards of the park. It's located at 1800 King Rd - Off North Service Road - between Brant and Waterdown Road.
