[RP TownTalk] Fwd: [HOPE_in_Hyattsville] New Dog Park in our District

Wed May 21 18:38:56 UTC 2008

The dog parks I have been to, College Park, Greenbelt, Quiet Waters (near  
Annapolis and with a dog beach! and a dog wash at the entrance!) all have 2  
areas.  One for big dogs and one for small dogs.  I think your dog  will fit 
right in.  Quiet Waters is a trip of about 35 minutes, but well  worth it.  Could 
make a day of it - go to the dog beach first, walk the  trails and then go to 
the dog park - all walking distance.  There is a  small fee to get in the 
park.  The dog wash/coffee shop is right at the  entrance and you can wash the dog 
or they will do it and you can sip  coffee.  Its a nice outing for owners and 
pups!

I need  to find a large dog-doggy park!
My chocolate lab is 80lbs of fun with an  oral obsession and an exacerbating 
love of all people, dogs and mud.
He  also has terrible manners and will not stop at anything to demonstrate 
his  affections for all things, alive or not. Luckily, he is not perverse.
How  does large vs tiny dog interaction gets handled at these parks?
Anyone have  any insight on the whole experience?

Greenbelt also has a dog park.  Just go up Good Luck Rd.  turn left  on 
Hanover Parkway (at the 7-11), go almost to the  light and turn Left and its right 
there.  Near those apt. buildings and  swim pool.  Might even be closer than 
College Park.  I have been  to both and they are very nice.  If you go there 
and there are people  there, they will let you in to see how you like it before 
you join the  club.  Audrey

It's  right on the Northeast trail, next to a parking lot that you
would get  to by car by turning left off Route 1 onto Mezerott Rd
(Mezerott goes  off to the left where Greenbelt Rd starts on the right)
and heading  down the hill to where you cross the trail. I believe you
have to be a  member to have access, and that it's generally locked.
