Dog poop is a problem we deal with on a daily basis. But is it dangerous? How much do you know? Is uncleaned pet waste a health hazard?
The short answer is YES!
Read the article for the details…
Dog Park
All Trash is CARRY OUT!
The park is now CARRY EVERYTHING OUT!
DO NOT leave poop on the ground.
DO NOT leave poop bags on the ground or gathered up into a bag on the fence.
DO NOT leave your Dunkins cups or water bottles in the park.
When you leave, TAKE IT ALL WITH YOU.
No Trash for the Winter!
The trash cans have been removed for the winter.
Please collect and carry out all trash and poop-bags when you leave.
Do not use the recycling barrel!
Recycling!
Now that the water has been turned off, we are all bringing water for our dogs – but many folks have been leaving the empty or half-full bottles behind. Every night, I clean up 4 or 5 empty water jugs and bottles. Additionally, the bottles and jugs take up a lot of room in the trash cans.
To alleviate some of the problem (and be good to the environment), we have added a recycling barrel at the park!
Fall/Winter Work Party
We are planning a work-party to do autumn cleanup and pre-winter maintenance on the park – On Saturday, December 3, from 8 till 12.
Several folks expressed an interest in assisting last time and have asked “when is the next work party?”
Please contact Will at webmaster@chelmsforddogassociation.org or on Facebook if you are interested in helping.
Water will be turned off…
In preparation for the coming colder weather, the water in the park will be shut off on Wednesday, October 26.
All of the fountains will be shut off at that time – so, please start bringing water/bowls for your dog(s).
Sponsorship Opportunities at the Dog Park
Now that the park is open, we begin the even harder task of maintaining and improving it.
We still need your help!
Business and individual Sponsorships Welcomed!
Autumn Work Party
