The dog park was created in the space between two buildings in downtown San Jose. A stout chain-link fence kept the dogs (when present) in.

A bench was available for humans to rest while dogs played. Flowers were painted on the wall behind the bench. An actual planter box was to the bench's left.

The woman's foot extended beyond the fence. More flowers were painted at that end, and another actual planter was at that end.

Big Dog

The woman lay on a big dog. Sadly the dog park itself was too small for big to dogs to run. It's small size benefited only small dogs.

The dog paws were arranged to avoid damage to blue flowers.
