MAC Mowers – Thank you

Posted by Brian, Jessie, Bear and Tootsie on June 30th, 2008

A big THANK YOU to the MAC Grounds crew for mowing the upper area around the trees. I arrived when they were almost finished and was happy to see that the dogs did not seem to get in their way. The poop pickup is now much easier.
Also, I noticed that the poop bag [...]

Little boy blue come blow your horn

Posted by Brian, Jessie, Bear and Tootsie on June 29th, 2008

I lost my air horn and it’s pretty hot pink carrier Friday night. We were walking along the lower area and I’m sure I was probably smacking those darn bugs and accidently knocked it off. But anyway, my neighbor’s dog Tootsie started to have a seizure but the bugs were so bad I [...]

Leptospirosis Vaccine and Giardia

Posted by Brian, Jessie, Bear and Tootsie on June 27th, 2008

My vet suggested getting the Leptospirosis vaccine because they visit the dog park. This can be passed on by infected urine in drinking water. Chances may be slim but the dogs like to pee on my buckets of water.
My dogs are negative but canine outbreaks of leptospirosis in several states are sparking discussion [...]

Has anyone been down to the river lately? I’ve been told access is impossible, beaches are underwater and water is dangerously fast.

Quicksand?

Posted by trplfudj on June 25th, 2008

I have had two people make reference to “quicksand” or “dogs that go in and don’t come out” while at the park in the last few weeks. Is there any truth to this? And if so, does anyone know which part of the marsh is most dangerous? (yes, I am aware it’s off [...]

Is everybody ok out there?   I hope everybody is just out enjoying the spring.  
I see many faces and cameras at the park but no posts on the site.  Please upload any photos or stories you have.

Dear MAC, Thank you

Posted by Brian, Jessie, Bear and Tootsie on June 19th, 2008

Thanks for mowing the grass.  It help making the poop clean up easier. 
I’m really sorry about your dumpsters being used as a poop drop.   I saw them Saturday moring and there was just a little in them.  Return sunday evening to find almost the entire bottom filled.  I did not clean it out and I should have.  Monday [...]
