After an intense afternoon of horsing around, it was time for the pups to take a little breather in the shade before heading home.

Of all of the rules the park has, this has to be the most important. We endorse this rule!

Some nice student made this cute sign for the dog park, which tells people that it is, in fact, a dog park.

It was all fun and games for pups Daisy, Sheffield and Payton at the John J. Hickey and Sandy E. Sanel Dog Park — affectionately known as simply “the dog park” — on Old Turnpike Road in Concord last week. Abby Tracy, owner of Sheffield and Payton, made the trip up from Manchester. “This is by far my favorite park around,” she said. It was a similar story for Kevin Gerry, who drove Daisy to the park from Gilmanton. “We come here all the time,” he said. The park, though not packed with dog amenities, is more than serviceable – it’s divided into two sections to keep big dogs separate from small ones, and there’s plenty of seating for humans. And, it’s located in a nice shady spot along the river, so it makes for nice scenery.
