Work Day - Saturday, March 13

E-mail Print PDF

Our next work day at the dog park is scheduled for Saturday, March 13th, from 9:00am until 12:00pm (weather permitting).

As with all of our work days, we need volunteers for the following tasks:

  • General cleaning - pick up trash and anything else that shouldn't be left laying around inside and around the park
  • Mulch Moving - Move mulch from the large mulch mountains over to where we need ground cover
  • Weed and brush removal - things that fall from the trees and isolated weeds that have grown up need to be removed
  • Remove excess mulch from gate leading into the shelter

If you can spare some time and labor to help us keep the park in good repair, we would really appreciate it. One of the things we really need during the work day is more wheelbarrows. If you have one you can bring for the work day to help move mulch, it would be a tremendous help.

Whether you can work the entire three hours or for just a few minutes, we can use your help! 

If your schedule permits, we hope to see you there!

Do You Have Your 2010 City Dog Tag Yet?

E-mail Print PDF

Welcome to the beginning of another new year! This is also the time to remind everyone that the City of Raleigh requires a pet tag for all dogs and cats over the age of four months residing within the city limits. In order to get a dog/cat tag, you must provide proof that your pet has a current rabies inoculation.  The cost is $7.00 for spayed/neutered pets and $14.00 for fertile animals. If you have not yet picked up your dog/cat tag for this year, now is the time to do so.

If you come to the Dog Park regularly, you may also have noticed that City of Raleigh Animal Control officers stop by from time to time and they may check to verify that people who bring their dogs to the park have current rabies and city dog tags. Please make sure that you have the proper tags on your dog when visiting the dog park.

Many vets in our area can provide the City tags. You can also get information online at http://www.petdata.com/cs/ral/index.htm

 

Special Olympics Event - Tuesday, October 27th

E-mail Print PDF

We've been asked to let you know that on Tuesday, October 27th, there's a Special Olympics event being held at Millbrook Exchange Park. The event runs from 9:00am until 1:00pm; however, participants are expected to arrive as early as 8:30am. There may be over 400 participants plus a good number of staff and volunteers, so parking is expected to be non-existent during the event.

If you normally come to the dog park during the day, you may want to avoid driving into Millbrook Exchange Park on Tuesday during this event. As an alternative, you can try parking on Rainwater Drive and walking into the park from there.
