Mark Saturday June 21 on your calendars. That's the date of the first annual King's Park Dog Party. We're currently making plans, but so far we're aiming for a start time of 4pm, rain or shine. Bring a dish to share with your human friends, while your furry ones have fun.
There's no admission fee, but contributions toward the new signage project will be gratefully accepted. Suggestions for other dog park improvements and activities are also welcome!!
Stay tuned for further developments.
A celebration of the dogs, their humans and King's Park, Winnipeg.

Hi Betty,
Hope we'll be able to make your party!
One comment I'd have about the dog parks in Winnipeg... not a single one is fully fenced. I have a sighthound (greyhound) who is very fast and I would love at least one of the dog parks to be properly fenced. King's Park at least is bordered on most sides by forest or the lake and the dog park doesn't run along side a major road, but there is still the risk that Riley could spot something (e.g. a rabbit) and follow it outside the boundaries of the off leash area.
I was recently with Riley in Vernon, BC where they have a fully fenced dog park. It was wonderful to be able to let Riley run and play with the other dogs without fear of him disappearing over a rise and being long gone before you can follow him over the ridge.
If a city the size of Vernon can do it, why not Winnipeg?
