The volunteers of the WDLA would like to know
more about the dogs and
people who visit the Bark Park
​so we can be better stewards of the Park.

​Please ​LOCK LOCK LOCK your car doors! 
​Don't trust anyone!

Please take the time to LOCK your car doors before visiting the Bark Park! 
We received the report of someone's personal items taken from
their car during their visit. 
There are no surveillance cameras at the park.
​Please notify the police if you see mischief makers or
​experience personal items taken from a car. 
It is sad that we must be diligent at all times.

After a Snow Storm, please be patient, the Public Works Department will ​
​
eventually plow the parking lot.
PLEASE, do not take it upon yourself to plow the parking lot.
We cannot have the water feed for the fountains damaged.
