We are getting a Gordon Setter pup this week and once he has his shots he will be joining in as well. Very seldom are there dog issues or dog owner issues. The dogs come home and sleep all day after their run around. It is worth the $25 for one or $30 for two every month. They keep it clean and the staff are great.
We want to go to DDR when we move later this year, but I had a question about puppies. I talked to Scott and he said puppies under a certain age (I thought it was 7 months but I could be remembering wrong) couldn't be in the park with the other dogs. Also, what do you do before spaying/neutering since those intact dogs aren't allowed? I won't do that before a certain age and yet I would want my dogs to have a place to play before then. Gordon's are large enough and active enough that they need room to stretch out like my borzoi do. Just wondering.
