Help Fund the Pinedale Dog Park
Donation protected
Pinedale, Wyoming is a friendly western town that has many amenities for its residents. But despite the large number of residents owning at least one dog, there are currently no approved areas where owners can allow their canine companions off-leash to exercise, socialize, and play.
An enclosed dog park has many benefits not only for the dogs but their owners and the surrounding community:
Allowing dogs to exercise and socialize safely creates dogs that are more well-adjusted and accustomed to other animals and people. They will be more likely to be well-socialized and react well toward strangers. Well-exercised dogs are also less likely to create a nuisance in their neighborhoods by barking excessively or destroying property.
Dog parks are a great place for owners to meet other people with common interests, fostering a sense of community. Park users also benefit from the opportunity to ask questions of other owners and find solutions to problems they might be having with their pet.
Showing potential new residents that we are invested in the community. Adding a dog park to Pinedale's amenities illustrates that the town cares about the recreation and enjoyment of the citizens that live here.
Dog parks promote responsible dog ownership. They prevent off-leash animals from infringing on the rights of other community residents along trails and in their neighborhoods. The number of lost or stray dogs could also be reduced.
A dog park could serve as a location for fundraising events and adoption clinics for the Sublette County Animal Shelter and Happy Endings Animal Rescue. Local pet owners and animal lovers could participate in events at the park to help animals in need.
Attracting tourists traveling through Pinedale with a place they can relieve their pets and allow them to stretch their legs without worrying about losing their dogs. This could give tourists an extra incentive to stop in town as well as providing people staying at local hotels a place to exercise their pooch.
If the vacant KOA lot is chosen as the location, the grass planted in the park would eliminate the dust blowing around the neighborhood.
By donating, you can help us off-set the cost of fencing, benches, tables, waste bins, water fountains, and grass seed. Also, we can show the Town Council that we are committed to working with the town to invest in the growth of our community.
You can also show the Town Council you support the Pinedale Dog Park by simply signing this petition or attending the Town Council meeting November 14 at 7 pm.
