content: I've been wanting to visit the Spring Preserve since it's opening but for some reason or another, haven't gotten there yet.\nI saw on Yelp that they were holding an event called \""Tails n Trails\"" opening the park to dogs. That week our pup got the last of his shots, so we decided to get him socialized. It was a bit hot that day, so we didn't stay late worrying about burning our dogs foot pads. But we had fun getting introduced to the park and letting our pooch make friends. They had wading pools set up and lots of treats and toys to buy. I thought there would be more foliage, plants, and shaded areas, but we also didn't go on a lot of the trails since the ground was so hot in most places. We didn't get to see the museums since dogs weren't allowed in those.\nWe'd be interested in going again to check everything out when its not as hot.
