A new "Bark Park" in West Houston including agility training!

My sister e-mailed this to me, courtesy of one of her friends at work.

The Dog Park on Hwy 6 (across from Farm and Ranch) opened recently. Check it out. It is on Highway 6 across from the Farm and Ranch Club, just south of Clay Rd (or just north of I-10), it is on the West side of the road.

Please send you inquiries about Bear Creek Park directly to Precinct 3 for the most up to the minute news. EMAIL: pct3_parks@hctx.net

Taken on January 5th 2007:


Looking north to the back of the big dog area, goes waaaay back there, and this is standing in the middle! It goes nearly as far in the other direction too!

The whole area above is sort of away from and around a corner from the pond shown below, so you can easily keep your dog away from the water if you prefer a clean dry dog for the ride home. This is a small section of the big dog pond, it's big, AND it has this little ramp thing that looks like it can be a jumping point for dogs to fetch balls and catch some "air". On the back side of the ramp the ground slopes up it so a dog can get a running start.


And here is what you have all been waiting for, some agility equipment! This is going to be popular! Shown are the two ramps -a high and a lower one, and those other little yellow pieces are jumping hurdles.


And not to be left out, the little dogs get an area nearly as big as Millie Bush is! With a decent sized pond and some shade covers too.

There is also little sized agility equipment in the small dog area! Ms. Tiny and I can't wait to get out there and visit all the dogs. Take care and be safe in the new environment...Terre
