The board finally granted the permit for the outdoor space. My body is heavy with exhaustion from this fight but the dogs will have their yard at last. Keep an eye on the facility to ensure the rules are followed so we never have to do this again.

This is an appeal, by the clients of City Dogs Boarding & Playcare, located at 801 Norfolk ave SW, to the City of Roanoke Zoning Appeals Board, to allow City Dogs to utilize their outdoor area for our dogs to play and potty. It is important to us, and our continued support of this business, that our dogs are given the opportunity to be outside.

Seeing the growth of this push for our dogs has been exhausting but deeply heartening. It is clear that the city needs to pay attention to what this community expects for our pets.

Please allow City Dogs to open their outdoor play area. We love and respect this business. They do a phenomenal job and always strive to be good community neighbors. This is a heavy industrial area where noise would be expected during the day. It is perfectly suited to their business.
Norfolk Street demographics are changing, albeit slowly. City Dogs, along with the Halloween store, are spearheading that change. Owners are beyond pleased with City Dog's services, allowing a supervised outside play area will attract more owners. Think about all of the pros and take action.
City Dogs is the only boarding option where I feel comfortable leaving my dogs that also have convenient hours for us. The dogs being able to play and go potty outside is crucial to ensuring I don't have to re-train my dogs after boarding.
The location of City Dogs in an industrial area with little/no residential housing should make this decision a no-brainer. Who, exactly, would a group of supervised, contained dogs bother besides metal fabricators and concrete businesses which are themselves considerable generators of noise?
Fresh air and room to roam is essentially for dog health and happiness! My dog Sandy would so benefit from a fenced-in area to be a good dog under City Dog's supervision. Please let us make this beautiful space happen in Roanoke.

I think city dogs would provide a great service to pet owners who work downtown (like I do), and that service would be ameliorated if our pets could run and play in a safe space outside.
