mr.coffee 364 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 oh...title says it all. We've taken Harley to Audubon Park, and he seems to do okay there so far. He's been downtown and the hustle bustle chaos tends to make him a little nervous yet. I don't really know how he'd fare on beaches, we go to the Gulf coast a lot, I guess we'll try it on him eventually. -m Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good Luck.. it's always fun to find new places to take our Tzus... Where do you go? The bays, the Atlantic? Inland waters? Doesn't look like y'all have much in the way of lakes & ponds in the immediate area... I guess my biggest concerns would be small dog in big surf (no, we don't see "big" surf in the gulf, but even a moderate chop with 1-2' waves would be enough to knock Harley silly) or rip currents, and the risk of jellies or stingrays...I expect frolicking dog paws splashing & smashing would scare off most rays before they posed a threat, but jellyfish are no fun. I've not had the misfortune of getting hit by either, but most of my friends and family have dealt with jellies and my BFF got hit by a Cownose Ray in Galveston a few years back. I don't mind bathing & grooming Harley, he's getting more cooperative every time, so sand & saltwater hair are no big deal to me. -m Quote Link to post Share on other sites
