Possible Future Programs

Please visit the Dog Park rather than bring you dog (or mini horse 😁) with you to your son’s or daughter’s soccer match. It’s a safety thing. Games are short and they would rather spend time with you at the park another time or waiting for you at home (not in your hot car, either).

We love our four legged family members, whatever shape or form they come in.

CWPD offers one of the best dog parks in the area
