The city finally gave us the green light to proceed with the dog park. It was a long road and my feet are tired but we reached the finish line. We have a lot of work ahead to start building this space right.

The city has been quiet despite our efforts to get this park project moving. It is exhausting to keep pushing when the offices remain closed to us but I am not walking away from this yet.

This would be wonderful and is much needed. It is to far to drive to the park at Oxbow Meadows and not everyone can go to Fort Benning neither. Let's get this done!

There are so many small hidden cacti at flat Rock that we are scared to take our dog! A specially sectioned dog park that is maintained to be cacti free would be perfect for us to bring him!

This is an amazing idea!! It will give many dogs a chance to socialize, and many people a chance meet other dog lovers . This might be a great way to revitalize this park in many ways!! Food trucks, adoption events, and training times. I LOVE it!!

I have two Great Danes and bring them here all the time. I live in Columbus and would love to let them have a place to run around without the leash!! A dog park would be wonderful.

A dog park would be very beneficial and is needed in that area. We are a big enough city to have a couple of nice places for our dogs to play.

Columbus needs a place for dogs to be out unleashed to run and play with other fur babies.
