Update 7/10/2017
We met with the planner and the councilperson's office at the dog park. We will have a combo small / timid and older dog area in the far triangle corner near Barrington and the parking lot. Parks and Rec will put up a fence and a separate double gate entry into the area. This should be done in October. (at the latest November.) The work being done to remodel and placement of the Veterans Memorial must be finished first before September for the VA Park. Thank you all for everything! Please call the councilperson's office early September to push this along and not delayed. Debbie Harris @ councilperson's office 310.575.8461 And Eric @ Barrington Parks and Rec 310.476.4866

Hi Barry. I am sure we could arrange for a walk through. Eric or I can reach out to the planner and ask him to join us. In terms of the design of the dog park, we have to deliver this park completed to the VA by the end of September. If we try to change the design now with the contractor to add the small dog park area, it could possibly set us back far enough that we end up being out of compliance. As you can imagine, we do not want that to happen. Thus, Rec and Parks is not sure if the small dog park section will be included in the park when it opens in September, or shortly afterwards once we have complied with the VA's deadline. They are waiting to see if there is a sufficient window to redesign it now or add it later- so we have to wait a few weeks to learn more. Once we do we can share it with you and your community members.
In terms of the three year lease, at this time we have no guarantee that the lease will be extended past that time, or that the VA won't exercise its right to evict us prior to that time. Unfortunately, we just don't know what the future holds, other than the City would like to continue to operate a park at this location for years to come.

We have heard from both the Brentwood Rec Center and the counclemembers office that there is enough room to separate the small dogs. BUT... The budget may (probably will) fall short and we will then have to raise funds to meet the difference. The small park will need fences, an entry gate and a dog drinking fountain. Stay tuned for a GoFundMe link once we have an amount. Large dog people, small dog people and Dog Walkers we need you. Please unite to make this happen!!!
Thank you to Eric our Park Director and Debbie at the counclemembers office.

Ineffective, and downright unfair, changes are being made to the Barrington Community Dog Park in the form of eliminating a dedicated and secure area for smaller dogs (30lbs and below). Yet, the incredibly large swath of land devoted to large dogs will remain intact. The simple solution is to fence off real estate within this sprawling area for the safety and benefit of smaller dogs. But for some unexplained and illogical reason that is not within the plans at the present time.
As members of the local community and loyal stewards of the park, this unnecessary change hurts numerous families and individuals as they will now have to travel outside the area to find adequate parks. All of this could be easily solved with a fencing plan that is within reason as part of the existing park renovation plan.
We urge that plans be changed for this simple, yet extremely important, area to be included.

The council member's office confirmed that adding a dedicated small dog area requires navigating complex contractor deadlines and park compliance requirements. I am currently coordinating a site walk-through with the project planner to identify how we can integrate this space without jeopardizing the current construction timeline. Please prepare to contact the listed officials to confirm the revised design once I finalize the logistics.

It is important to keep a small dog park. I urge the city to add a fence for the small dogs. I have seen more than a dozen instances since the parks were combined over the last several weeks of dogs getting into fights due to difference in size and temperament. This addition of a fence is absolutely necessary.
Although I have a medium/larger dog, its important to keep a small dog park for their enjoyment, safety, and security too, an experienced dog owner would understand this without much explanation. Keep the small dog park.
Small dogs challenge big dogs, which might make a big dog react unfavorably. No owner of a big dog wants their dog to bite or trample another dog, and no owner of a small dog wants their dog hurt. Separating the small and big dogs protects both owners of big dogs and of small dogs.
I recently moved to the area and chose specifically the apartment complex across from the dog park because of it accessibility. My small dog cannot be near the big dogs and had an incident with one of the larger dogs coming into to the park. He must be in a small dog park area.
My dogs love Barrington! I have 2 small dogs and while we use the big dog area when we go super early on the weekends, if it's too crowded we appreciate the small dog area for safety. One size does not fit all dogs! Safety first, folks!

The small dogs NEED this, you have a few dog walkers bringing 10/15 dogs at a time and don't even look after all their dogs and when they come in the park they attack the dogs. It's not safe for my small dogs to go anymore, this is so disheartening
