My family just left after 10 days of playing in Sun City Grand. Having never been here, they really enjoyed our community. As a matter of fact they really weren’t ready to go. Eventually we must all get back to reality. Let me tell you, the reality here in Sun City Grand is pretty darn good.
We golfed on all courses except Desert Springs, we spent a morning at the Cimarron Day Spa being pampered, we hung out at the Cimarron Center Pool & had lunch, we ate lunch at Dillon’s, we walked the trails, we worked out at the Cimarrron fitness area, we ate dinner at JB’s, we toured the Palm Center, we toured the Sonoran Plaza, we toured the Chaparral Center, we walked the grounds and took Oso to the Pet Park. I even took in a golf lesson.
We really “did” Sun City Grand with our family. The matter of the fact is that there is so much more to do here than we did. Consider all of the clubs and other sports and activities that one can take advantage of. Life can be pretty darn enjoyable here in Sun City Grand, maybe a little tiring too. What a way to spend your life.
The thing that we noticed most was the friendly staff and the fact that everyone was smiling and having a good time. We met people from Canada, Washington State and Minnesota to name a few. I can’t say enough about the overall feel of Sun City Grand, it really is a fabulous place to play, socialize and live life to it's fullest.

Oso at Sun City Grand's Dog/Pet Park
Sun City Grand Dog Park Registration
I thought since it was a beautiful day and the temps have cooled that I would take Oso to the Sun City Grand Dog Park. Off we went, in the car again and Oso has no idea where he’s going. Could it be the groomer again, or, oh no not the vet! Nope, not this time.
Wait, first things first, we need to register Oso at Sun City Grand's Activities office. Wow this is official business, Oso is going to feel pretty special (like he doesn't already). We took our rabies certificate along with our completed registration form to the Activities office. Once registered you will get a tag for your pet to wear.
What a great place, Del Webb really thought of it all. A pet park for our furry little family members, this is fantastic. Not only is it a great place to let Oso run around, but it's a great place to meet other residents and pet owners alike.
The pet park is so beautiful. It's located in the Village Center over by the tennis courts and Dillon's Restaurant. There are benches and a shade covering and it is lush and beautiful. To the north of the Dog Park there is a lake and Desert Springs Golf Course. There are also walking paths throughout this area. It's a great place to come and hang out while your pet runs about and does his/her socializing & business.
Please note: The Pet Park is closed every Monday for maintenance from morning until Noon.

A Little About Oso
Okay, Oso is “Oso-cute” indeed he is, just ask him. Well, just ask me. No, just look at his picture. Oso will pose for any picture, sit anywhere and grin and bear it. I happen to be his biggest fan. Look at his picture, can you blame me, I think not.
Oso was born on September 21, 2002 which makes him 7 years old. He weighs 8 pounds and doesn't have the traditional pomeranian cut. He actually has an even all around cut that is short and easy to manage. His grooming happens once a month and that's it. Believe it or not, he doesn't shed, which is fantastic.
Not only is he cute, he’s cuddly and likes to play with his toys, go for walks and beg for food too. Oso also enjoys going for hikes in his backpack. His favorite place to hang out is at the Grand Canyon where all the visitors from near and far take pictures of him.
Sun City Grand is a premier Del Webb active adult community in the northwest valley of Phoenix, Arizona. There are numerous activites, amenities and even 4 golf courses to keep residents busy. For more information about this fabulous community or to view homes for sale, visit my website.
