Monthly Bark in the Park
Phil Hardberger Park – WEST, 8400 N.W. Military Highway, San Antonio, TX, 78231, us
Come join us for our monthly Boston Terrier social! http://img1.meetupstatic.com/img/smileys/smile.gifWhen you enter the park from Military Highway, take the first right. The dog park is along your right side behind the bushes/trees. The parking lot is on your left. We will be there from 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM. We will be in the small dog section of the dog park.
If the parking lot is full, go back to the main entrance street and turn right. There will be additional parking just down the street all within walking distance of the dog park.
It’s always lots of fun to see so many Boston Terriers running all over the place. (The most we’ve had at one time was around 30. C-R-A-Z-Y!!!!!) As one first time participant said, “These is organized chaos.” http://img1.meetupstatic.com/img/smileys/laughing.gif It’s a good idea to bring your own water bottle and bowl. Toys too. And plastic bags for those accidents. http://img1.meetupstatic.com/img/smileys/confused.gif We look forward to seeing you! http://img1.meetupstatic.com/img/smileys/cool.gif
IMPORTANT: Please stop to read the dog park rules which are posted at the dog park’s entrance.
