ANOTHER Doris Leeper Park
I guess we will have to research who Doris Leeper was because her name is on so many parks around our town. We have found another park named after her. (I guess we could be technical and say that the parks are like one continuous park but that is somewhat of a stretch.) In any case, we found another Doris Leeper park and ventured there recently. This one is more of a fishing spot with a little less shady areas and a little more waterway.
Henry cooled off in the water a bit but we did not want him to stay in there long. We saw a lot of crabs and other critters in the water making it uncomfortable for us. Of course we would not want a crab to catch hold of his tail or legs or any other part of him!
It was nice new adventure nonetheless. He walked the whole walk and got his feet wet on 2 separate occasions.He wasn't even so tuckered out when we got home! This little 13 year old was like, "Hey! Give a me a challenge here and there, won't you?!" #OneStrongPug #HenryStrong #HenryIsAGoodBoy #GoodPug

Whoever she is, Doris Leeper is great in my book! Another lovely park for Henry to enjoy is wonderful!
In your pictures, it seems that the parks aren’t heavily used. Are they as private as it seems?
Martha- Yes, the parks are gently used. It is rare that we encounter many (if any) other people or critters there. (And as a sidenote to your other comment the other day about the Henry hearing the waves. Well, we doubt he hears them. At best, Henry’s hearing is super dull. He is mostly deaf but on occasion, he will hear something if it is on the pitch/frequency and we’ve noticed that only one ear is the ear that MAY hear—on the rare occasion he hears something it is with that one good ear and he just usually circles around and around until he can place the noise—which is not often. Still, he is one tough pug!)
How wonderful that you’ve found new parks for Henry to explore. Looks like he’s having lots of fun!!
