With a generous grant provided by the Dawn Brancheau Foundation, Animal Services now has an additional dog play yard spanning both A and B kennel buildings. With the fencing installed, our dogs now have an opportunity to go not only go outside, play and be dogs – but they can do so off leash!

As great an addition as this new play yard is, our shelter dog population is desperately in need of additional outdoor fenced areas for our dogs to play, learn and practice their skills. These new areas would allow our trainers and volunteers to conduct simultaneous training and play sessions, assuring that most if not all of our adoptable dogs would get the chance to use the yard on a regular basis.
