We're sad to say that the time has come to close the parks for Mud Season.
In order to maintain the beautiful grass, we have to give it a break while the ground softens.
We will keep you updated so you can plan for its reopening and our spring cleanup day.
We look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Ingrid's Park is reserved for a private play session Thursday, March 6th, from 11:30a-1:30p. Please plan accordingly.

If you're interested in reserving Ingrid's Park for pup parties, training sessions, or would simply prefer your own space for time with your dog(s), please email us at [email protected] or send a private message on Facebook.

RIP trash can. While your time with us was brief, you made our park a cleaner place to play. You did your best, but that snow plow showed no mercy. 😭
Does anyone have a STURDY TRASH CAN, with a lid, they could donate to the park? If you would like to donate towards a new one, please visit our website for options and note what you'd like the donation to go towards.
We have one, but two keeps the operation much smoother and the park much cleaner.

The parking lot is clear and beautiful!! Come on down!! (As always, be cautious of the ice.)

We're so happy to be able to keep the parks open through the winter (so far)! Here are a couple of notes so you and your pups can have the best time and the parks stay in great shape:
-The parking lot is only plowed after a storm has passed, so be mindful of how deep the snow is.
-There is ice underneath the snow, particularly along the walkways and near the gates. It's safer to stand further out in the fields. As always, pay attention to the dogs around you and brace your knees to help prevent a fall.
-Dogs get thirsty playing, even when it's cold. Bring water with you. There is also a water bottle in each cooler in each park that gets refilled every 1-2 days.

Due to the early arrival of warm temperatures and rainy weather, the dog park will be closing for Mud Season no later than 5pm today, Wednesday, March 6. We will likely reopen in early May. Enjoy spring with your pups and stay tuned for an update on our plans for the coming year!

Mother Nature seems to have returned to her regularly scheduled winter temps - Brrrrrr! 🥶 The next few days will be quite cold, so this is a reminder to limit outdoor playtime. Post your favorite indoor activities below! 👇

Chilly is a bit of an understatement - it's frigid out there! As much as we want to make sure our dogs get exercise, it's probably best to stay indoors as much as possible these next few days. Stay warm, friends!
