The dog park will be closed for the next few days during this cold weather. The cement pad around the gate has also risen up to where the gate is touching the pad. If this cold weather makes it come up any further, this will make the entrance impossible to use until it goes back down when it thaws. Everyone please stay safe and warm.

Happy National Dog Day! We love our 4 legged members!We would love to see your pooch. Post a picture below!

We want to give out a huge thank you to the Defiance Area Foundation for their $500 donation for a bench. We are so excited to add more seating in the shade at the park!

Congratulations to Defiance Bark and Run Park for their recent grant of $500 to put towards new park benches. This grant was awarded from the Hanna Family Memorial Fund, during our last grants cycle ending in March 2024.

We would like to remind everything that children 12 and are not allowed inside the dog park. If you see someone there with a young child, please say something or let us know! This rule has been set for a reason. If anything were to happen this could be a huge liability for the park!
