    "Dog owners would love the Lake - great park areas, birds to chase, safe from cars. There is lots of trash, however. People don’t respect the lake. "

    "There are a lot of dog owners, so it's a chance to meet new people. The path around the lake is more accessible than any parks, so walking around the lake is easier to do than driving to a nearby park."
