Tyson's First Camp Day

Meet Tyson, Our Newest Camper!

Tyson is an eight month old Rhodesian Ridgeback (you can noticeably see his ridge, which is a charateristic of the breed)  Today was his first day in camp, and he started making friends immediately!  He likes to hang out with the big rotteweiler, Max, and has also instantly bonded with Ovie, who is the same age as him.  He LOVES nylabones, and playing keep away and chase with Ovie.

What a great first day Tyson!  We are glad we will be seeing you on a regular basis for our doggy daycamp!

If you would like to enroll your dog in Gaithersburg's doggy daycamp, please contact the center at 301-926-6005 or visit our website for more information.

King Farm Dog Park Review

Sonic and Smudge visited the King Farm Dog Park, located in the King Farm community. 

What Sonic and Smudge liked...
  • There were water fountains for both humans and dogs, benches, and poop cans
  • The park is split into a big dog area and small dog area
  • Unlike Bickerstaff Dog Park, there are trees that provide shade

What Sonic and Smudge didn't like...
  • It is not an open and public park, you must register and pay a fee to get the combination to open the entrance
  • While there was both gravel and grass, the grassy areas were extremely muddy; they both went home with dirty paws
Sonic enjoyed exploring and smelling the perimeter, while Smudge had to tolerate sitting for a picture with a Great Dane (a picture I've always wanted; it took six attempts and still didn't turn out)

Sonic and Smudge's Overall Rating: C
