Finding a dog park made easy
I heard about this over the weekend from someone at the dog park -- iPhone now as an off-leash dog park locator as one of its free "apps" you can download. Great for those who travel with their dogs. Also available through the iTunes App Store.
It works with your phone's GPS to tell you where the closest dog parks are, wherever you and your best friend happen to roam.

About the Bloggers
Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

Donna,
You should check out the Fido Factor app (www.fidofactor.com). We just launched it about three weeks ago with a focus on San Francisco dog parks, restaurants, and more. We are rapidly adding full Bay Area coverage. These locations will show up in the app now and we plan to officially launch the Bay Area locations in mid August. The app is free, has a great interface, and will include Facebook connect in the updated version.
