We are members of the dog park out on Shop Road and we’ve got a big group out here. Any favorite activities that you enjoy with Colonel Mustard? We go to the dog park almost every day. Colonel Mustard likes to chew things up, still. He’s a year-and-a-half. Can you tell me a little more about this dog park?__ Tina Heckman [runs the City of Columbia Doggie Park] and to be members, you just contact her. She’ll meet you — and more importantly, your dog(s).

What brings you out to this year’s Bark to the Park event?

immediately acclimate to their new surroundings and new best friends. Owners’ fears about dogfights and fear that their dog is too young or too old for the park immediately dissipate. Tina is Columbia’s Cesar Milan, really! She has the ability to communicate with your dog like you never have, and she gives great training tools and tips for pet owners. Speaking for Colonel Mustard, but I think he’ll agree, the park is by far the best part of the day. He gets to run full speed in over three acres of land, take a dip in the pool, dig in the sand, chase balls and sniff lots of butts! Everyone is required to have shots and be spayed/neutered, so no funny business. Colonel Mustard gets tons of exercise which is great for him, and when we get home, he is exhaused! There are tons of dog park regulars that Colonel looks forward to seeing every day, and a happy dog means a happy owner!
