The Junior League rents it for $1/year. Good question about profits? Who does “profit” from the profits. Certainly not the dog park!

I bet you didn’t know that I’m a huge dog lover too. Well, I am. In fact, the only thing in the world I love more than dogs are dog owners with incredible amounts of free time and disposable income! Now, I’m guessing there are more than a few of you fine folks who fall into that category, so I invite you to come visit me at my very own Las Vegas casino:

I know what you are thinking. “We can’t possibly fly to Sin City for the weekend. Poor Fluffy would miss us so much and she would miss her Saturday dog park play date.” Fear not, you can bring her with you, and Fido too! We’ll set them up in our very own K-9 Casino Spa! C? Can I really do that? Of course I can, I’m Jimmy Buffett!

OK, OK, I know that some of you may not be gamblers. But you still love your dogs, right? And this dog park tragedy has still got you down. So it’s time for you to rise up! Demand that City of Decatur remedy this Poochy Paradise Lost immediately! Tear down that fence? Not gonna happen. But don’t give up. We’ll all forget our sorrows when the city installs a Margaritaville DM1000 Frozen Concoction Maker right next to the doggie water fountain!

C’mon, Decatur Parks and Recreation, show us the tequila!!!!!!!

My dog can’t even use the park. But a city resident could bring this to the city’s attention.
I saw these mulch socks used on a steep riverbank to stop erosion. The before and after was striking, especially after the plants grew into the mulch socks and helped conceal them.

Have you forwarded these to the Public Worksor Dept and Parks and Rec?
There are other issues than those mentioned. NOt are there people who can walk that far there are people who are confined to wheelchairs who would/could not safely access the aprk nor get to their dogs without assistance of others. There is also the issue of safety for all. There are not enough exits should there be an emergency. What if someone had a fall or MI how could the EMS access the park quickly?
