Memphis is for the Dogs!

Okay, if you know me and how much I love Memphis, you know that I'd never really say that Memphis is for the dogs. However, in this case I really mean it -- well sort of. this past weekend my family took our dog Keeper out to the dog park at Shelby Farms. I've lived here most of my life and had no idea that there was a dog park anywhere in Memphis but sure enough there is. It's on the North side of Shelby Farms (I think that's Raleigh-LaGrange) on the east side right where Trinity curves and becomes Raleigh-LaGrange. It's a huge area that's gated and has walking trails and at least two ponds. You can bring your pooch out there and let them off the leash to run free.

This last Saturday the weather was beautiful. there were tons of dogs running and playing with their four legged buddies. There were plenty of people out at the dog park as well. If you're a family guy like me, there were plenty of other families. If you are single, there were plenty of good looking single men and women out there as well.

That may have been the first time that I've been to the dog park at Shelby Farms but it won't be the last time that Keeper and I are out there. Hope to see you there soon.
