Dog Park - Fremont & Union City 2002

At the end of September of 2001, Aiqi's startup company went out of business as the .com bubble bursted in the SF Bay Area. She found her current job nine months later. During these nine months, Nappy was one happy dog because mom took him to dog park EVERY DAY! :) He made lots of new friends there and rather enjoyed running around without a leash. Aiqi, on the other hand, always came home with interesting stories of various dog owners and Nappy's new friend. All pictures were taken by Aiqi

		Nappy met some big fellows in the park.Under comparasion, he looked almost normal!
Apparently, there were lots of chasing going on. Second picture from the right:The black dog that was running in front of Nappy belonged to a deaf Japanese girl. The black fellow had a passion for running and LOVED challenging Nappy, who was never able to catch up with his nimble friend. The black and white dog that Nappy almost catches up to was called Rocket, another runner.
		Earlier in the year of 2002, a new dog park opened in Union City. It had much better facilities for the four-legged fellows.
Nappy was carefully checking out every piece of equipment in the new park. He seemed to be satisfied. :)
			Another big fellow that Nappy befriended in the Fremont dog park is this black Great Dane, his name is Mozas. A gentle and gigantic animal.
Nappy was taking a bath during one hot summer day.		Mom made a sweater for him when winter came. Nappy was very pleased.
