Bark Bits... Still need your pass? Come Wednesday!

THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS: Thank you to Lt. Joe Valiente of the NOPD and the Community Service Volunteers he brings. Through their efforts, the new sod has been watered well, the parking area across the street made free of weeds, and the pavilion, gazebo and entry area washed down at least 3 times a week. They have logged over 60 volunteer hours since he started working with them at the dog park. Special Permit Sale & Pick-up: We will be selling dog park permits at the entry pavilion from 4:30-6:30 onSeptember 29 during the agility demonstration. Please tell any friends and relatives who are interested in joining. You may also pick-up previously purchased permits. REGULAR PERMIT SALES: Permits can be purchased M-F, from 10am-2pm at the Friends of City Park office across from Storyland.. If you mailed your application, your permit will be available the day after it is received between 9 & 5. Call 483-9377 to confirm. If you cannot pick it up, you can have it mailed for a $5 additional charge. If you are receiving Bark Bits, your permit is ready for pick up. ADOPT ME: While you are at the dog park with your pet, you might notice handlers with dogs wearing "Adopt Me" vests. These are LASPCA foster dogs with their foster parents. Each of them fills the requirements set by NOLA City Bark for entry and their foster parents have swipe cards for admission. If you or someone you know is interested in adopting another dog, please talk with the dog's handler. Any adoptions between now and October 31 will help the LA-SPCA reach their goal in the $100K shelter adoption challenge.
