JoJo’s favorite playtime is visiting his friends at the dog park.
So I decided to plant a series of well-loved dog characters at this
dog-friendly place!

The Clues! ~Kid Friendly!!!
Go to the "liveliest" park in Springfield, Oregon. Park behind the building next to the portapotties. Follow the sidewalk past the playground and take the path to where the dogs play.
When you cross the gravel road find the "Private Driveway" sign take the large bark path right at the sign.
To Dog #1:
This Big dog has a wonderful owner who would love to take him on letterboxing adventures. I think he'd make a lovely boxing buddy. Let's find him
Follow that path straight until you reach the "S". In the middle of the "S" is a multi-trunked tree practically laying in the path. He is waiting for you between those trunks behind a piece of bark. (haha "Bark!")
To Dog #2:
This dog will have the clues to whatever mystery or adventure needs solving! He'd also make a fine boxing buddy, don't you think? (Though, you'd have to sit in a chair to do that).
Continue on until you come to the "Y". Go left. The path will turn right. On the right side off the trail a bit you will see fallen tree trunks. Beyond that is a tree standing behind a stump. You will find this friendly canine sitting between the tree and the stump.
To Dog #3:
Stay on the main trail as it curves you to the right, pass an open field. Keep going and you'll find yourself heading back to the park, you'll see the fence. On the left you will see an unusual log that resembles elephant tusks. Search the end of the log near the tree to find what this curious Beagle has found.
Don't worry about getting lost. Just follow the trail and it will lead you back to where you started.
While you're there visit the dog park with your canine friend and/or take the kiddos swimming!
