Canine Companions in Greensboro

Greensboro residents love their canine companions. Yesterday's GDP post featured LeBauer Park, a local park that has a special section for dogs. Country Park also has a "bark park" section. Owners who know their dogs have been well socialized can let their dogs run around within the confines of the fenced-in area.

Greensboro also has many dog-friendly businesses. Replacements, Ltd., for one, allows employees to bring their dogs to work. Many brew pubs allow dogs on leashes. When the festivals in the parks, like MUSEP, start back up for the summer, you will see many canine companions. You will also see dogs out running with their owners, like at the "Running of the Balls" in Sunset Hills each December.

The old English bulldogs in the above photo didn't look like they were in the mood to run, but the were photographed while out exploring with their owner in Price Park. If you are interested in a dog, please look at the local animal shelters. There are plenty of options.

As a grandmother to a new grand-dog, our first, I have a sudden interest in dog parks, dog socialization, etc. So nice to read about Greensboro's canine friendly attitude.
With all due respect to those English bulldogs (it's a great portrait), our Cavoodle puppy is cuter. :) He is in puppy preschool now.

This is a super photo of a couple canines which I'm sure bring a lot of love to their owners!
