If man's best friend is part of your family, he needs to get out and enjoy some recreation just like you do. Take your dog to the Oakwood Dog Park for a great game of fetch or just let him run around and enjoy the thrill of being outdoors. There is a large dog area as well as a small dog area for older dogs or those that may be anxious around larger dogs. Either way, the exercise and fun will benefit both dog and owner!
