The week after we got back from our trip to DC, Greg's friend at the Bulls called to let him know that they were having Bark in the Park that week. We decided to go because when we went 2 years ago, we really enjoyed it. I mean, our dogs act crazy initially because there are so many other dogs there, but then they get adjusted and end up relaxing. Last time we went, I didn't pack water and a bowl for them to drink out of, and so we had to buy a bottle of water at the park for the dogs which was not ideal!
It's actually a pretty cool event, if you have a minor league (or major) baseball team near you, then check out their promotions schedule to see if they do a Bark in the Park. They had a bunch of local dog daycares, and vets set up with tents and information. The company that makes the "thundershirt" is actually based in Durham, so they had a booth also. Penni got a toy from the thundershirt people that she is obsessed with. Overall, we had a really good time, and it was so nice having this event in April instead of July so that the dogs (and humans) didn't get so hot!

That is so fun! We've been enjoying the new Barons stadium and it would be fun if they did this. I'll have to check it out :)
