| - I thought this dog park was a little sucky until I visited a few other Phoenix dogs parks. Now I know that as far a PHOENIX dog parks go, this one is actually pretty darned nice.
Now, compared to Glendale, Scottsdale, Chandler, different story.
But for Phoenix, this one is large, has lots of grass, nice working water stations with large buckets, separate sides for big and little dogs, and most of the people are pretty decent, too.
That being said, if you're a person who:
a) doesn't know the difference between a big and little dog (or at least one that can handle itself amongst the big guys and one that can't),
b) doesn't know how to pick up after your dog,
c) wants to bring a toddler or a stroller for cryin-out-loud,
d) doesn't want to pay attention to your dog and let it shit or fight or whatever while you socialize and smoke cigarettes on your lawn chairs in a big semi-circle,
e) doesn't know the difference between aggressive play and an aggressive dog, and chooses to display this ignorance by chucking a full 1.5 liter Dasani water bottle at full velocity towards a group of 3+ dogs who just happened to be playing near your big dumb St Bernard when it decided to pussy out and *Yelp* as it dropped to the ground (in a typically submissive dog-language move)
...then just don't bother coming in the gate here, and let the rest of us have a good natured, clean, healthy, fun time.
Oh, yeah, if the softball goonies are here they come in droves and parking sucks - i see a lot of people go across the street and park in the convention center lot, but your dog will love you even more if you park down the street in one of the other Rose Mofford Sports Complex lots, and walk through the park on the winding sidewalks to get to the dog run area.
