We’ve heard from many of you that our dog park at 3rd Street and 8th Avenue is due for some upgrades–especially replacing the gravel that some dogs have found to be a little rough on their paws.

So we’ve started a GoFundMe page to get those improvements underway. Our goal is to raise $5,000 from friends and neighbors, and then the North Loop Neighborhood Association will kick in an additional $5,000.

We’re grateful to the many North Loop businesses that have already donated money as well as gift cards which will be raffled off at a fundraising event on Saturday, August 28th, at the dog park from 11am-1pm.

Starting at noon that day, we’ll also give out prizes for the best dog costume, best pet/owner lookalike and best dog trick. Look for more information on our social media pages leading up to the event.

But feel free to donate anytime here.
